There is nothing better than sitting outside on a hot day with a popsicle to keep you cool. But, if you are also like to enjoy a beverage just as much, this is your solution: cocktail popsicles. These recipes combine the goodness of a frozen treat with the flavors and ingredients of a cocktail. Try them for your next pool party or just relaxing on the front porch!

Gin and Tonic

A classic gin and tonic is both refreshing and delicious, especially on a hot day. To make this into a frozen treat you don’t have to do anything different than if you were making the cocktail! Combine gin, tonic water, and lime juice. Pour into a popsicle mold, add a slice of cucumber and a mint leaf and wait for it to set!

Tequila and Grapefruit Juice

This popsicle is a little bitter, a little sweet, and perfect for any summer day. First, make a simple syrup. Then, combine with grapefruit juice, lime juice, tequila, and a pinch of salt.

Margarita

For this margarita popsicle, combine sugar, lime, lemon, and orange juice in a pot. Heat until the sugar dissolves, let cool, then combine with Grand Marnier and Tequila.
