Strawberry Daiquiri Popsicles (Printable)

Cool down with vibrant frozen treats featuring strawberry, rum, and fresh fruit chunks.

# What You Need:

→ Popsicle Base

01 - 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
02 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
03 - 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
04 - 1/3 cup white rum
05 - 1/4 cup water

→ Fresh Fruit Chunks

06 - 1/2 cup diced kiwi
07 - 1/2 cup diced mango
08 - 1/2 cup diced pineapple
09 - 1/2 cup sliced strawberries

# How-To:

01 - Combine hulled strawberries, granulated sugar, freshly squeezed lime juice, white rum, and water in a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
02 - Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or lime juice intensity as desired.
03 - Divide the mixed fruit chunks evenly among 8 popsicle molds.
04 - Pour the strawberry daiquiri mixture over the fruit, filling each mold to the top. Gently tap molds to remove air bubbles.
05 - Insert popsicle sticks into each mold and freeze for at least 6 hours or until completely solid.
06 - Briefly run molds under warm water to release popsicles from molds.

# Expert Hacks:

01 -
  • They taste like a vacation in popsicle form, but without the guilt of a full cocktail.
  • The fruit chunks inside create little flavor explosions that keep things interesting from first bite to last.
  • You can make a whole batch in 15 minutes of actual work, then let the freezer do the heavy lifting.
02 -
  • Don't skip the gentle tapping after you pour—trapped air bubbles create weird ice crystals and chunky texture that feels off in your mouth.
  • The lime juice does something special that lime zest alone can't: it keeps the popsicle from tasting too sweet and gives it that authentic daiquiri bite.
03 -
  • Running the molds under warm water for just 5-10 seconds is the magic move that releases them every time—too long and they'll start melting, too short and you'll be wrestling with them.
  • If you want an extra layer of complexity, add a pinch of lime zest to the blended mixture right before pouring it into the molds.
