Nutella Espresso Rum Popsicles are a perfect adult treat for summer days and nights.  An easy frozen dessert recipe, made with only 4 ingredients: bananas, coconut milk, espresso rum liqueur, and Nutella. 

Nutella Espresso Rum Popsicles

An adult popsicles recipe

Wanna know something?  Alcoholic popsicles are hard to make.  Okay, they aren't really that hard to make, but apparently they are for me.

Originally I planned on a champagne and fresh fruit popsicle recipe.  Unfortunately, I used a champagne made up of all Pinot noir grapes and one wasn't inexpensive.

I really don't understand why I use an expensive bottle for this, besides the fact that I thought:

  1. The popsicles would have a beautiful pink color.
  2.  I would have leftovers to drink.
  3.  And I would have the popsicles to eat too.

Well, I actually had to use up the full bottle of champagne for the recipe.  Then, the popsicles didn't freeze properly.

There were hard ice crystals all throughout, the beautiful pink color wasn't really beautiful, and the popsicle sticks slid right out when I tried to remove them.

In addition to all this popsicle making BS, I ruined a fantastic (aka: expensive) champagne by freezing it.  Sometimes messed up recipes can be saved, but not this time.

In the end, I determined the problem was that I underestimated the amount of non-alcoholic liquid I needed to balance out the champagne and freeze properly.

What can I say, chemistry has never been a strong point of mine...

How to make popsicles

With the next popsicle recipe, I decided to start with a more stable base.  One that would freeze properly when mixed with alcohol and Nutella.

The chocolate hazelnut spread needed to be included because who doesn't LOVE Nutella recipes???

I use an all-natural organic chocolate hazelnut spread from Italy, Rigoni Di Asiago Nocciolata. 

I used the name Nutella in my description because EVERYONE knows what Nutella is when you say it.

Plus my title would have been too long if I called it "Rigoni Di Asiago Nocciolata Organic Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa and Milk Espresso Rum Popsicles".

Regardless of the name, these Nutella espresso rum popsicles are easy chocolate snacks. 

The perfect frozen dessert to enjoy while laying out by the pool or sitting on the couch after you've had too much sun.

    Chocolate, coffee, rum, cold popsicle....yes, please! It has been close to 100 degrees here all week. This popsicle is just what I need! Thank you for your determination with recipe development.I know that it is beyond frustrating when expensive and delicious ingredients combine to create....trash. Also thank you for introducing me to Grind Espresso.

    Karrie, I would be mad if I didn't have left over champagne also! I have had many epic fails in the kitchen too. It drives me batty. But I would be more mad about waisting perfectly good alcohol! Your Nutella Espresso Rum Popsicles look Wicked Good! I am glad these turned out successful. I know some lovely ladies that would love for me to make these for them. I guess I should get to making them! Thank you for the fun recipe!

    Wow. Wow. And wow. These speak to me! I can't resist Nutella, or popsicles, and of course espresso rum goes down pretty easy! I just experimented with boozy popsicles and you're not joking about the dangers...so sorry to hear about your champagne mishap, I'm sure I'd be right there with you seriously considering drinking the mix... ah well, looks like you recovered in good form!

    OH. MY- GOSH. Those popsicles sound delicious, Karrie. Nutella + espresso + rum? I guess they are speaking to me. Seriously, this post is intriguing me because I was just telling my husband that I so need some rum popsicles and then I saw this one. Thanks for this fabulous share! Can't wait to try it!

    Oh dude!! I totally read about that alcohol in popsicles issue. When I was doing research for my popsicles, I came across this popsicle expert who said that when doing boozy pops, you really have to make sure to keep the booze low--or else you'd encounter major freezing issues. Dang... Meanwhile, I'm so glad it all worked out for you. And how! I am loving the four simple ingredients. Checking off so much deliciousness. Just sayin'. Bring these to Boston, would ya? Pinning! xoxo

    Dang.... you go girl! This is brilliant! Give me a spoon and a jar of Nutella and I'm a happy gal. Throw in some booze with it, and I'm as happy as a clam. These will be absolutely perfect this weekend - it's supposed to be a hot one and we have no AC!

    I wouldn't have been able to help you with the champagne popsicle. I wasn't strong at chemistry, too . Anyway, I prefer these popsicles way better!! They have chocolate hazelnut spread, espresso and rum! Yayyyy!!! Love all three of them! Together, they rock! Thanks for sharing this deliciousness!

    Your first popsicle sounded super lovely with the champagne and all, but this also looks uhmazing, so I'm kind of glad you were prompted to make another popsicle recipe! I mean...nutella....need I say more? These remind me of a much tastier, adult version of fudgesicles, which I loved as a kid. Can't wait to try this out as it's super hot in Cali right now and I could totally go for one of these <3

    Giiiiiirl, I feel your pain with the messed up batch of champagne popsicles!! That totally blows a big one. Please tell me you were able to at least drink the popsicles?? Seriously sucks when recipes go wrong, especially when it involves champs!! But, I'm kinda glad the first flavor went sideways, because THESE are awesome! So you know I can't eat them... but they are STILL awesome! Love the nutella espresso rum combo! I best these taste seriously amazing! Who needs coffee in the morning when you can start the day with a boozy pop or two? GENIUS! πŸ˜‰ Totally making these for boy! And you are welcome to eat all my chocolate and nutella at a party! <3 lol. Love ya girl! Cheers! Pinned! xxoxo

    Recipe fails are the worst, but when you lose an expensive bottle of champagne in the process, that's just down right tragic! I'm so glad you got back up on the horse and made these delicious boozy Nutella pops because these are pure genius! Yay for Popsicle Week!

    Oh, these look so good, Karrie! I wondered about that..,alcohol in pops and if it froze. Don't worry....I've had my share of kitchen duds. It's so crappy too 'cause I get all excited and when it doesn't turn out it's such a bummer. I know I would LOVE these, though. How could I not with those ingredients?! All kinds of goodness all wrapped up in one wicked treat. You have a winner there and Pinning for trying soon πŸ™‚
