Popsicles and Posies – Mojito Pops
Blueberry Mojito Pop
Whether it’s for a bridesmaids luncheon, engagement party, baby shower, brunch, dinner party…popsicles are always a fun little addition for any occasion. We wanted to step outside the box a little and make a popsicle cocktail adults could enjoy, so we decided on this yummy Blueberry Mojito Poptail. Not only does it look so pretty, it’s sweet, it’s boozy, it’s refreshing, and it’s so delicious!
Here’s what ya need:
½ cup sugar
½ cup water
35 mint leaves
¾ cup lime juice
6 tablespoons light rum
6 oz blueberries
Popsicle Mold
How to get your pops poppin’
In a small saucepan, combine sugar, water, and 25 mint leaves. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved, then remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, strain out mint and pour syrup into a large bowl. Squeeze into the bowl lime juice and rum and mix until combined.
Pour into 10 popsicle molds, filling a little more than ¾ of the way up. Toss one fresh mint leaf and about 10 blueberries into each mold. Fit with popsicle stick and freeze for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
