Bake It

How good do these look! This recipe only makes 4 Popsicles, so double or triple as needed!

Margarita Popsicles:

INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons tequila
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)
Kosher salt, for garnish

DIRECTIONS
  1. Combine sugar, lime juice, water, lemon juice and orange juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  2. Once cool transfer to a blender with tequila, orange liqueur, and lime and process until smooth. Pour into Dixie cups or Popsicle molds and cover the top of each cup with foil.
  3. Place a Popsicle stick in center of cup (down through foil, which will hold it in place). Freeze until hard, preferably overnight.
  4. Remove from freezer and run cup under warm water to loosen Popsicle. Garnish with kosher salt and serve. Enjoy!
