Coconut Mango Lollies Recipe

 

Tropically sweet and satisfying, and easy to make, this Coconut Mango Lollies recipe is ideal for providing a boost to those of us still trying to hold on to the dying embers of what was our so-called summer.

Mango and coconut are two very distinct fruits. Both conjure up visions of beaches, sun, sea, and far away places, and for the 5 or 10 minutes you eat them you can take a mini holiday.

They also aren’t two flavours you wouldn’t normally put together, however they balance each other out incredibly well. They taste so sweet and creamy, that there’s absolutely nothing about them that seems healthy, but they are in fact low in calories.
