Nothing says summer like popsicles, right? And nothing says an adult summer like wine popsicles! Like white? I've got a delicious and not too sweet white wine popsicle recipe with strawberries. More of a red person? I've got a perfectly sweet red wine popsicle recipe here too.
Each of the zip bags I used for my popsicles holds one half cup + one ounce of liquid. I made four of these popsicles at a time.
Pour wine and 1/2 cup sparkling water into a bowl. 1 cup red wine
In a small measuring cup or bowl add honey, lime juice, and the rest of the sparkling water. Pour at once into a small saucepan over medium heat to make simple syrup. 2 tsp honey, 1 lime
Add the simple syrup to the wine mixture and stir well.
Pour into popsicle molds or bags, leaving about an inch for expansion. If you'd rather the pops not expand as much, use filtered water instead of sparkling water.
Freeze 8-10 hours, but preferably overnight.
How to make white wine popsicles:
Each of the zip bags I used for my popsicles holds one half cup + one ounce of liquid. I made four of these popsicles at a time.
Pour wine and 1/2 cup sparkling water into a bowl. 1 cup white wine
In a small measuring cup or bowl add honey, muddled or crushed strawberries, and the remaining sparkling water. See the recipe notes below for directions about muddling fruit. Pour these ingredients at once into a small saucepan over medium heat to make simple syrup. 2 tsp honey, 4 strawberries
Add the simple syrup to the wine mixture and stir well.
Pour the mixture into popsicle bags or molds. Make sure to leave about 1 inch for expansion. You can also use still water in place of the sparkling water–it'll help the pops to not expand as much when freezing.
