Add a splash of tequila to a frozen sweet with an easy and refreshing recipe for Strawberry Margarita Popsicles.

Meet the Jello-O Shot’s cooler cousin: Strawberry Margarita Popsicles. Fresh-flavored and frosty, these snackable cocktails on a stick are my solution to beating the heat. And with summer temps on the rise, I can’t help but want to steer clear of anything involving an oven and/or an open flame.

Southern California is in the midst of a heatwave, so what better time to create the ultimate mashup between tequila and frozen treat?

Four ingredients separate you from these boozecicles that are a touch sweet, a touch sour and a whole lot-o-refreshing.

Mix up any flavor of margarita popsicles by swapping out the strawberries for blackberries, peaches or even watermelon. While the whole goal here is to drink your cocktail and eat it, too, you can absolutely go the mocktail route with this recipe to satisfy tiny taste-testers (or preggos!). Simply swap in equal parts club soda or lemon-lime soda.

So now you’ve got to get ’em while it’s hot … or be forced lucky enough to lick up the leftovers!
