Mango Cilantro Ice Pops

When Lottie’s Kitchen asked us to come do a food demo last summer, we knew we wanted to make one of our favorite things, ice cream! But then they told us that they were focusing on healthy treats… So in addition to mango ice cream, we created this simple mango ice pop with cilantro.

Go out and find some champagne mangoes, I buy them from the corner fruit stands.
