1

In small bowl, beat coconut colada layer ingredients with whisk until smooth. Divide mixture among six 5-oz paper cups. Cover with foil; insert craft stick (flat wooden stick with round ends) through foil into centre of pop. Freeze 2 to 3 hours or until frozen.
2

Meanwhile, in blender, place mango mai tai layer ingredients. Cover; blend on medium speed about 45 seconds, stopping frequently to scrape sides, until smooth. Cover and refrigerate while waiting for first layer to freeze.

When first layer is frozen, remove foil from pops. Pour mango mixture over frozen layer. Return foil to pops to help support sticks. Freeze about 8 hours or until frozen before serving. Store remaining pops covered in freezer.

Expert Tips

Tip : Be sure to allow the coconut colada layer to freeze completely before adding the mango mai tai layer.
Tip : Be patient when freezing these spiked ice pops. They take longer to freeze because of the alcohol, but they are worth the wait.
