Boozy popsicles are perfect for summer! Plus they are so easy to make and you can customize them to align with your favorite cocktail.
Tips for Making Boozy Popsicles
Alcohol ratio is important! One part alcohol to five parts of non-alcoholic ingredients is a good ratio to ensure your popsicles freeze. If you don’t mind them a little on the slushy side, you can change the ratio a little bit and add more alcohol.
Flavor Matters! As things freeze, they tend to become less flavorful so you have to use more of something like lime juice or sugar to get the same taste effect.
Use the Right Tools! One of the most important things for these popsicles are the popsicle sleeves. You can definitely use popsicle molds if you have them but I love the disposable sleeves! Using a popsicle sleeve versus a mold allows you a little more flexibility with the alcohol ratio too.

Plan Ahead! Freeze these for at least a day. I actually recommend making them a few days in advance. If you have a deep freezer, that works even better.
Keep them Cold! Because of the alcohol, these are going to melt faster than your regular popsicles. So, keep them in the freezer (or buried in ice) until you are ready to eat them.Â
Watermelon Mint Moscow Mule Popsicle Ingredients
- Fresh Watermelon
- Fresh Mint Leaves
- Vodka
- Lime juice
- Mint Simple Syrup

I put a few slices of fresh watermelon in the sleeves before pouring in the liquid which gives them the perfect amount of watermelon flavor and adds some texture too. You could add crushed mints leaves as well if you want.
The extra watermelon pieces also help give the popsicles the fun pink color you see in the photos. My husband doesn’t like “chunky” popsicles though so I leave it out of his.

Essential Items for This Recipe
