2. Cascade a pocket-size amount of kokosnoot milk into each glass and stir. *The amount is kind of to sense of taste. You may want more or less kokosnoot milk in each glass, and then experiment with this measurement a little bit.

iii. Cascade the juice and coconut milk mixture into each popsicle mold, filling but near halfway. I did v light-green machine and v berry veggie. Pop the molds in the freezer until slightly hardened (near 45 minutes).
