Papaya & Pomegranate Pops

Ingredients

1/ 2 cup (125 ml)	Unsweetened pomegranate juice
1/ 2 cup (75 g)	Raw cashews, soaked in cold water overnight
250g	peeled & seeded papaya, coarsely chopped (approximately 1/2 medium papaya)
1/ 2 cup (125 ml)	coconut milk
2 tablespoons	coconut oil, melted
2 tablespoons	maple syrup
1/4 cup (60ml)	freshly squeezed lime juice

Method

Pour the pomegranate juice into the bottom of six 100 ml popsicle moulds. Freeze for 1-2 hours, or until almost frozen solid.
Drain and rinse the cashews under cold water. Place the cashews and remaining ingredients in a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate until pomegranate juice is frozen.
Spoon or pour papaya mixture into the moulds to fill completely. Insert popsicle sticks. Freeze for a further 4 hours or overnight, until completely frozen.
Run moulds briefly under warm water to help release the popsicles.

Popsicles can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.
