Limber de leche are delicious ice pops made with milk and cream. They originate in Puerto Rico and are enjoyed year-round on the island. This frozen treat has a similar flavor profile as flan, coquito<\/strong><\/a>, rice pudding, or horchata with notes of vanilla and cinnamon. If these delicious Latin + Caribbean desserts are your vibe, you’ll definitely love limber de leche!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limber de leche is often confused with limber de crema. The main difference between them is limber de crema contains a cream-flavored syrup which makes it more yellow in color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Puerto Rico, limber is traditionally made in small plastic cups. Once frozen, you flip the ice pop upside down and place it back in the cup to make it easier to eat. I like adding a popsicle stick to make them easier to hold while eating. You could also use a popsicle mold to make popsicles or paletas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is limber?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What is a limber, anyway? Limber got its name from pilot Charles A. Lindbergh, who landed on the island in 1928. According to locals, Lindbergh was greeted with a frozen juice that later was referred to as limbers. Limber is how many in Puerto Rico pronounce the pilot\u2019s name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limber comes in many different flavors. Among the most popular are coconut<\/a><\/strong>, passion fruit<\/a><\/strong>, tamarind, cherry, and peanut. I recently made a morir so\u00f1ando limber<\/a><\/strong> which was a hit on social media!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
