Ingredients
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup tequila
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 2-3 tablespoons agave syrup (or maple syrup or honey)
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the orange juice, tequila, lime juice, and your choice of sweetener. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well blended.
- Pour Mixture into Molds: Carefully pour the mixture evenly into your popsicle molds, filling each cavity to the top for uniform popsicles.
- Initial Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for 1 hour to start setting the edges before inserting sticks.
- Add Popsicle Sticks and Freeze: Cover the molds, insert the popsicle sticks, then freeze for an additional 5 hours or overnight until fully solid.
- Serve with Optional Salt: Once frozen, remove the popsicles from molds and sprinkle with salt if desired for that classic margarita touch.
Notes
- Adjust the sweetness to taste by using agave, maple syrup, or honey.
- For a non-alcoholic version, substitute tequila with additional orange juice or sparkling water.
- Ensure your popsicle molds are well frozen before inserting sticks to prevent slipping.
- Use fresh lime and orange juice for the best flavor.
