Ain't nothing like a boozy popsicle, right? They are kind of the perfect dessert. I sorta feel kid-like having one but in a "I snuck into my parent's liquor cabinet" kinda way. And this deconstructed kiwi margarita is the perfect way to start!
Prep Time 15minutes
Total Time 15minutes
Ingredients
½cup fresh lime juice
1cup granulated sugar
2½ cups water
2kiwifruit
2tablespoons Tequila
2tablespoons Grand Marnier
Instructions
Whisk together 1/2 cup of fresh lime juice, 1 cup of sugar and 2 1/2 cups of water until the sugar is completely combined. This is really important so if you are unsure about the sugar being dissolved, you can warm it over a medium-low heat to ensure it.
Peel 2 kiwi fruit and slice them thinly.
Whisk in 2 tablespoons of tequila and 2 tablespoons of Grand Mariner. Do not add any more booze or your pops will not freeze. You will have a slushy mess on your hands.
Add a few slices of kiwi fruit to each mold and then fill with them with the margarita mixture. Now keep in mind, this is NOT a margarita mix, you wouldn’t want to drink it. It is for popsicles only.
Add the popsicle sticks.
Freeze for at least 7 to 10 hours as you want these pops to be rock hard.
