Margarita Popsicles

Post by nevadabadgirl » Sat May 05, 2007 4:50 pm

Ok, saw these on Emeril's show....made them for a BBQ at a friends house and they were a SMASH! (So was making them, there was a lot of "tasting" going on LOL)

Margarita Popsicles Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2004
Show: The Essence of Emeril
Episode: Frozen Treats


3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons tequila
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)
Kosher salt, for garnish
Special Equipment: 4 small cups (recommended: Dixie), 4 popsicle sticks


Combine sugar, lime juice, water, lemon juice and orange juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Once cool transfer to a blender with tequila, orange liqueur, and lime wedge and process until smooth. Pour into the cups and cover the top of each cup with foil. Place the popsicle stick in center of cup (down through foil, which will hold it in place). Freeze until hard, preferably overnight. Remove from freezer and run cup under warm water to loosen popsicle. Garnish with kosher salt and serve.

My only suggestion: At least quadruple the recipe :) Oh, and buy way more Grand Marnier and Tequila than you think you will need :P
