Homemade Margarita Popsicles (recipe viral from TikTok)

On hot summer days, there is nothing quite like enjoying an iced drink while the sun goes down. For me, the most refreshing summer drink is a frozen margarita. Imagine, however, a better-than-average frozen spread recipe. Hello, margarita popsicles!

Step 1: Mix the ingredients

Place the tequila, Cointreau, agave, lime juice, lime and ice in a blender. Then, says Babs, let it sniff! Mix all ingredients together on the “ice crush” setting of the blender. Keep mixing until the consistency becomes smooth.

If you’re a mocktail fan, Babs has a tip for making these pops alcohol-free. “Just add a little orange juice,” she says, and it’ll still be delicious.

Step 2: Pour the frozen margaritas into glasses

Into Dixie paper cups, pour the margarita mix “almost to the top but not quite,” Babbs says. A recipe can consist of up to 16 contaminants.

Step 3: Add the limes and popsicle sticks

Cut the lemon into slices. Place a slice on each popsicle stick. Place them individually in each Dixie cup.

Step 4: Freeze overnight

You can now stick your pops in the freezer to freeze them overnight. Get ready for the magic of frozen margarita pop!

Step 5: Salt the rims

It’s a margarita pop, so once these popsicles are frozen you can pop them right away.

In true margarita fashion, you’ll want to salt the edge. Add some salt to a plate and cover the top of the frozen pops with the salt. Bam, they’re ready to serve! You’re all set for some frozen margarita popsicle goodness.
