Chef's Pro-Tips
- Layer the Tajín: Sprinkle chili-lime seasoning at the bottom, halfway, and top of each mold as you pour. It keeps the heat distributed through every bite instead of sinking to one end.
- Warm-Water Release: Run the frozen molds under warm water for a few seconds before pulling the sticks. Twisting dry molds is what cracks popsicles in half.

Step-by-Step Instructions
Blend Mango Base
Add the fresh mango cubes, lime juice, and honey to a blender. Blend on high speed until completely smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water.
Mold the Popsicles
Sprinkle a pinch of chili-lime seasoning into the bottom of each popsicle mold. Pour the mango puree into the molds, filling them halfway. Add another pinch of chili-lime seasoning, then fill to the top.
Freeze
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds. Place in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely frozen. Run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to release the popsicles, and serve.

Yes — thaw it first so it blends smooth. You may need a tablespoon or two of water to get the blender moving, just as with fresh.
Run the molds under warm water for a few seconds — they'll slide right out. Don't use hot water or the outside melts too fast.
The Tajín adds a mild chili-lime tingle rather than real heat. Use a light hand for kids, or add an extra pinch per layer if you like more kick.
Stored in the freezer in a sealed bag or container, they keep well for several weeks — if they last that long.
