Strawberry Lime Aide Margarita Swirl Popsicles

(Before It's News)

There’s one National Food Holiday that I look forward to every year.  No, not National Nutella Day (I’m sure there’s one of those) but National Margarita Day! It couldn’t fall on a better day as far as I’m concerned. While I’ll attempt to refrain from bragging that it’s perfect patio sitting and margarita sipping weather here in Phoenix, I know most of the country is fed up with the blizzards and sub zero weather. Ick.

But let’s think positively shall we? I think some genus of a person (obviously a woman) pinned National Margarita Day on February 22nd for a good reason. Perhaps for those who are at their wits end with snow days and snow boots and snow plows they can turn up the heat a bit, put on their sundresses and bathing suits and sip on a frosty margarita!

Makes perfect sense! I’m rational that way.

Let’s savour every single tart, tangy and sweet drop of a Strawberry Lime Aide Margarita frozen style. Let the sticky sweetness slowly melt and drip on your fingers. Then slurp it up quickly so as not to waste a drop! These can be poured into tiny Dixie cups and put in the freezer with popsicle sticks like we did in the 80′s (minus the tequila) or if you have a ZOKU pop maker you can have one of these Margarita pop’s in less than 5 minutes. 
Yes, seriously.  5 minutes!

You Will Need

3 cups chopped strawberries
2 cups prepared lime aide (found in the frozen section)
3-4 ounces tequila of your choice
some sort of popsicle maker, mold or dixie cups w popsicle sticks (I love our ZUKO)

Make lime aide according to directions but use only 1/2 as much water!!!  In a blender, puree strawberries until smooth. Pour a bit of strawberry puree in mold. If you are using a conventional method you will need to put the molds/cups in freezer and wait 15-20 minutes. If you re using a ZOKU it will take about 1 minute. Pour a bit of the lime aide on top of frozen strawberry layer and let freeze. Repeat until the mold is full. 

Sit back. Kick your feet up and hang in there until Spring arrives!

Don’t stop at popsicles! Make a day….. weekend out of it, put on your best flip flops and sunglasses and check out these other margarita inspired recipes!
