THUG KITCHEN - POPSICLES


This summer be sure to avoid frozen high fructose, artificial bullshit and fight swamp ass. Because there are two kinds of people in this world: people who get swamp ass and goddamn liars. Don’t sweat it though because Thug Kitchen has your back with real fruit popsicles. These are easy as fuck to make and it’s not like you’re too busy to freeze blended fruit.

MANGO PINEAPPLE POPSICLES

2 ripe mangos, skinned and cut into chunks, about 2 cups

1 cup frozen pineapple chunks

1 cup yogurt (I used a coconut yogurt but you can use your favorite shit)

2 ½ tablespoons lime juice

1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger

Throw all of that together in a blender and blend until it is smooth. Pour the mixture into your molds and let it freeze for at least 8 hours. No molds? Don’t fucking give up now. Just do it like we all did growing up: small paper cups and popsicle sticks. Shit, you could even fill up your ice cube tray and use toothpicks for bite-sized deliciousness. Just make sure your sticks don’t go all the way to the bottom of the mold or cups because then you have a fucking ice kabob thing that ends in heartbreak.

Makes about 2 cups of filling. The number of pops you get depends what the fuck you pour it into



PEACH BLUEBERRY POPSICLES

1 cup frozen peaches

½ cup real fruit juice (I used a peach apple juice blend here and it was legit. Check your label. Anything that only has 2% fruit juice is just a bottled lie)

¼ cup yogurt (I kept using coconut yogurt because I still had a bunch left but again use your favorite shit)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Blend all that together and then pour the mixture into a large glass. You should have about a cup. Don’t wash the blender. We have more shit to do.

1 cup frozen blueberries

½ cup yogurt (you know the drill by now)

¼ cup of the same fruit juice you already used

1 teaspoon lemon juice

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Blend all of that shit together until it is smooth. Layer it into your molds or cups with the peach filling if you want the popsicle to look awesome. Pour them in at the same time if you love chaos. Freeze for at least 8 hours before trying to get down.

Makes about 2 cups of filling
