1 can (13.5 oz / 400 ml) full-fat coconut milk — not light2½ to 4 tablespoons granulated sugar, to taste½ vanilla bean, split and scraped (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)1 pinch fine salt2 tablespoons infused coconut oil, carrying 30 mg THC for the whole batch6 popsicle sticks
Stoney says: start low, go slow — the forest isn't going anywhere. Wait 90 minutes before seconds.
Steps
- Set your 6-cavity mould and sticks out before you start, and have a liquid measuring cup ready for pouring.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk the coconut milk with the sugar, the vanilla bean and its seeds, and the salt. Heat only until the sugar has dissolved and the surface just begins to shiver — do not let it boil.
- Take the pan off the heat, cover it, and let the vanilla steep for an hour. Fish out and discard the pod.
- Infusion step: while the mixture is still pleasantly warm (warm to the finger, not hot), add the 2 tablespoons of infused coconut oil and whisk hard for a full minute until no oil slick sits on top. For the most even dispersion, buzz it with an immersion or counter blender for 15 seconds — an emulsified base means every pop carries the same 5 mg.
- Pour into a measuring cup, whisk once more right before pouring, and divide between the 6 cavities, filling each to the same line. Take a second to even them up by eye and top off any that sit low.
- Freeze about 45 minutes until slushy, insert the sticks straight, then freeze until solid, at least 2 hours or overnight. To release, let the mould stand at room temperature a few minutes or dip it briefly in warm water.
- Start low, go slow: one pop, then wait a full two hours before deciding anything. Freezing mutes sweetness and these taste like dessert, which makes a second one very easy to reach for.
- Label it: store the pops in a freezer bag or airtight tub with a tag reading — Vanilla Bean Coconut Pops · 30 mg THC total · 5 mg per pop · 6 pops · made [date] · 21+ only.
