Creamy Margarita Pops

 

It is a warm summer day! The kids are officially done with school and it is time to celebrate! I love making recipes that no one else is going to be bringing to parties. I made these for Cinco de Mayo and they were a big hit!

 

This recipe is Paleo and can be made without the Tequila so it is kid friendly too!

 

 

 

1¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 8 limes), plus 3 limes to slice and place on top of paper cups
3 tablespoons raw honey

1 (14 ounce) can of full fat coconut milk
3/4 cup water
¼ cup tequila
3 tablespoons fresh orange juice (about ½ an orange)
coarse sea salt, to sprinkle over limes

Pour lime juice and honey in a pitcher, or a bowl with a spout. Whisk until the honey is fully incorporated into the juice. Add coconut milk, water, tequila, and orange juice, whisk until combined. Pour into 12 (3 ounce) paper cups, I used Dixie brand, making sure to fill almost to the top. Slice the 3 reserved limes into 12 thin slices, about ¼ inch thick. Poke a popsicle stick through the center of each lime slice and place on top of cups. Freeze for, at least, five hours. When frozen, cut the paper cup off and sprinkle the exposed side of the lime with salt.

 *If serving at a party, place on a platter of crushed ice. This recipe easily doubles, or triples.
