It sure is tempting to snack on ice cream and popsicles when the sun shows it’s face and the temperature rice. These Rhubarb and Coconut Popsicles taste like summer vacation and are the ultimate snack after hangouts on the beach or a bike ride in the woods.
Rhubarb is super easy to grow, and it is one of the first things you can harvest from your garden in the Spring. It is also a popular ingredient in the New Nordic Cuisine along with Dill, Beets and Licorice.
There are many different types of Rhubarb, but the most common are the red and the green ones. I highly recommend using the red one, since it is sweeter and has more appealing color. (The green one becomes dark brown when cooked)
