Many of your favourite cocktails can be transformed into alcohol ice pops with ease. We’ve chosen three of our favourite tipples – strawberry margaritas, mojitos, and a classic gin and tonic – and can we just say, these are YUM!

One top tip before you get started: if you are using moulds that require the lollipop sticks to stand in the mould on their own, you might find they are falling over. Try freezing your favourite alcohol ice pops in their moulds for an hour until the mixture is semi-solid, and then add the sticks.

Mojito Ice Pops

Makes 6-8

Ingredients:

• 100ml water
• 100g caster sugar
• A large handful of mint leaves, torn
• Zest of 2-3 limes
• Juice of 6-8 limes
• 60ml white rum

Method:

1. Start by making a mint syrup to infuse your ice lollies. Bring the water to the boil in a small saucepan, then remove from the heat and add the sugar. Stir until it is dissolved, then add the mint leaves and lime zest and simmer over a gentle heat for 3-5 minutes. Set the pan aside for at least 30 minutes to infuse all the mint flavour.
2. Sieve the syrup into a jug, and discard the mint sprigs and lime zest. Add the rum and 130ml of the lime juice, then stir to combine and add the soda water. Taste to see if more lime juice is needed.
3. Pour the mixture between the ice lolly moulds, add some mint sprigs to garnish, and freeze until solid.
