Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw honey
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 stick lemon grass cut into 1 inch long pieces with the layers separated
  • 4 limes juiced (about 1/2 cup of lime juice)
  • 1/2 cup tequila
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk

Instructions

  1. Bring the water and honey to a boil over medium high heat until the honey has dissolved into the water. Add the lemon grass, lower to a simmer, and allow the syrup to simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat, scoop the lemon grass out of the syrup, and set the syrup aside to cool to room temperature.
  2. Once cooled, whisk together the syrup, tequila, lime juice, and coconut milk. Pour the liquid into popsicle moulds and place in the freezer. The coconut milk will separate and freeze in a creamy while layer at the top of the popsicle, while the cocktail mixture retains a lovely gold hue. Freeze overnight and serve the next day.
  3. Boozy popsicles are softer than their non-alcoholic friends, because of this I recommend wrapping your hand around the outside of each frozen popsicle mould for 10 seconds before pulling out the popsicle. This will help melt the outside of the popsicle just enough to loosen its grip on the mould so that it won't break when you try to pull it out.
