Cocktail Popsicles: Lychee Saketini

Spring is here, but we’re already pining for warm summer days! To get you through this cloudy hump day, we found a mouth-watering and fun cocktail recipe for your next party–Lychee Saketini from Endless Simmer. Cocktail popsicles remind us of those fun summer days as kids, but with a grown up twist. It’s a great cocktail trend that I’m sure you’ll want to try out with other types of spirits and flavors. Although, we think the drinks that use fruits will go over better with your guests, rather than whiskey flavored popsicles

Lychee Saketini Recipe

 Ingredients

· 1 ½ cup limeade

· ¾ cup sake

· 16oz lychee, peeled and seeded (approximately 20-22 regular size lychees)

· 8 oz honeydew, pureed (approximately ¼ of a regular size honeydew)

· Optional: Raspberries to garnish

Instructions

1. Place limeade, sake, lychee and honeydew in a food processor or blender and process or blend until pureed, about 1-2 minutes. Pour mixture through a medium strainer.

2. Pour strained mixture into popsicle forms —add raspberries now if you are garnishing the popsicles—and freeze for about 2 hours or until mixture starts to solidify enough to hold a popsicle stick upright.

3. Insert popsicle sticks and finish freezing popsicles overnight.

4. To release popsicles run hot water on the outside of popsicle molds for a 2-3 seconds.
Thank you Endless Simmer for sharing this delicious cocktail popsicle recipe!
