Vegan Pina Colada Popsicle
When I went on my trip to Puerto Rico, my friends ordered the most delicious virgin pina coladas I've ever had. It was so good, that our entire table ended up ordering it. This Vegan Pina Colada Popsicle recipe is inspired by that memory, and is a perfect and healthy treat during the summer. And even better, the recipe is super easy. It's a great substitute for ice cream, and there's absolutely no guilt in eating these because there's no added dairy or sugar. So feel guilt-free, and pretend you're off vacationing on a tropical island while eating one (or two) of these Vegan Pina Colada Pops!
