Just in time for the summer heat, long weekends, and saving mommy's sanity while the kids are home from school, these adults-only Rosé Popsicles will take your summer to levels you never thought possible.
- 8 Ounces Barefoot Rosé Wine
- 2 Ounces Simple Syrup (cooled)
- 1 Ounce Grand Marnier
- 2 Strawberries, sliced (2 thin slices per popsicle)
- 5 Raspberries, halved
-
Pour the Rosé, cooled simple syrup, and Grand Marnier into a spouted measuring cup for easy pouring. Stir gently to combine.
-
Arrange your fruit in your popsicle mold. I found that placing one strawberry slice in the bottom, then the two raspberry halves, then the second strawberry slice on top of those allowed for the most even distribution of fruit throughout the popsicles.
-
Gently pour the Rosé mixture over the fruit into the popsicle molds, filling each one to just below the top.
-
If your popsicle mold has a lid, place it on top now. Then insert your popsicle sticks into the mold and carefully place the whole shebang in the freezer.
-
Freeze your popsicles for at least 5 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Combine equal parts water and granulated sugar in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30-45 seconds for a quick and easy simple syrup!
- Removing the popsicles from your mold can be a bit tricky. Try submerging the mold in warm - NOT HOT - water that comes up to the top of the popsicles for 20-30 seconds, and they should slide out easily for you!
- Make sure you're using a sturdy handle for your popsicles to help minimize the chance of them breaking upon removal.
- These boozy pops will melt pretty quickly, so you'll want to either eat them quickly - which was not a problem for me *insert fake surprised face here* - or you can serve them with a glass of chilled Rosé to catch the drips!
