Transfer mixture to a blender and purée until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Pour mixture into molds or silicone ice-cube trays. Mixture will begin to separate, so whisk while pouring to recombine if necessary. If using popsicle molds and sticks, freeze until firm but still slushy; add popsicle sticks and freeze until solid.
