Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pounds strawberries, stems removed
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon silver tequila
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Purée Strawberries: Blend the strawberries in a blender until completely smooth to create a fresh fruit base for the popsicles.
- Mix Ingredients: Pour the strawberry purée into a large liquid measuring cup or bowl with a spout. Stir in the silver tequila, honey or agave nectar, and fresh lime juice until evenly combined.
- Fill Molds and Freeze: Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, insert the sticks, and place them in the freezer. Freeze until the popsicles are solidly frozen, which typically takes several hours or overnight.
- Unmold Popsicles: To remove the popsicles from the molds, briefly run them under lukewarm water for about 10 seconds, then gently slide them out to serve.
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit tequila and add extra lime juice or sparkling water for fizz.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or agave nectar to taste.
- Use ripe, fresh strawberries for the best natural flavor.
- Ensure popsicles freeze completely for easiest removal from molds.
- Store leftover popsicles in the freezer in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn.
