We have been on such a coffee kick since we returned from New Orleans. I love coffee but in the summer it is just miserable to drink a hot cup of joe. I’ve spent a lot of time and money at my favorite coffee shop enjoying my favorite iced coffee drinks. Heck, I buy mocha lattes and frappes and cafe this and that everywhere we go.
After our amazing trip to New Orleans I had a new found love for coffee in every form. After developing a few frozen coffeedrinks and sharing them with you, I new it was time for a coffee popsicle. I sampled straight coffee ice pops and believe me they were potent, but also very icy and not a favorite. Mixing the strong brewed coffee with perfect amount of cream and sugar made a scrumptious popsicle with a great consistency.

FILL MOLDS: Pour the coffee mixture evenly into 10 popsicle molds, leaving about ยผ inch of space at the top of each mold for expansion.
INSERT STICKS: Cover the molds with their lids or a piece of aluminum foil and insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold.
FREEZE: Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely frozen.
SERVE: To remove the popsicles, run warm water over the outside of the molds for about 10 seconds. Gently pull the popsicles out and serve immediately.

I wanna make popsicles but have no popsicle moulds. I think I'll make do with glass cups. Tropical flavours all the way for me! But I could use some frozen coffee right about now.
These are awesome! I love popsicles and can’t live without coffee, so this was a no brainer when I saw it. A very tasty and fun way to get your caffeine fix!
Oh man, these popsicles are so my kind of thing! Coffee fueled?! Yes, please!

Sounds like a plan, but I would be careful with the glass in the freezer.
Enjoy!
BTW, sometimes I use disposable bathroom cups.
I love the idea of popsicles for breakfast!!
