Firecracker Watermelon Tequila Pops – Sweet, Spicy, and Bursting with Summer Flavor


  • Author: Sophia
  • Total Time: 6 hours 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 cups watermelon, pureed (seedless or deseeded)
  • 1 cup tequila
  • ¼ cup lime juice (fresh is best)
  • ¼ cup agave syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup diced jalapeños (remove seeds for milder heat)
  • Popsicle molds
  • Wooden sticks


Instructions

  1. Blend the Base: In a blender, combine pureed watermelon, tequila, lime juice, agave syrup, and salt. Blend until smooth and fully combined.
  2. Add the Heat: Stir in the diced jalapeños by hand, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture. This keeps the heat consistent in every pop.
  3. Fill the Molds: Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
  4. Insert the Sticks: Place the wooden sticks into each mold.
  5. Freeze: Transfer to the freezer and let them set for at least 6 hours, or until completely frozen.
  6. Unmold & Serve Run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help release the pops easily.
