Prep Time:
20 minutes
Cook Time:
10 minutes
Servings:
3 ice pops
Ingredients
  • 3½ cups blackberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 3 cups fresh pineapple chunks (about ½ whole pineapple)
  • ⅓ cup cilantro leaves
  • ⅓ cup banana slices (about ½ banana)
  • ⅓ cup whole-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2¼ ounces vodka
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (juice of about 1 lime)
  • Pinch kosher salt
Directions
  1. Make the boozy blackberries: Prepare an ice bath. In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring the blackberries, sugar and water, covered, to a boil. Remove the lid and continue to cook at a medium boil, stirring occasionally and gently mashing half of the berries using a wooden spoon, until the berries are soft and the liquid has reduced to a syrup, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vodka and immediately remove from the heat. Pour the blackberries into a bowl set over the ice bath and cool completely.
  2. Make the ice pop purée. In a blender, purée all the ingredients on high until smooth, 2 minutes.
  3. Assemble the ice pops: Spoon 2 tablespoons of purée into the bottom of each ice pop mold. Layer with 2 tablespoons of the blackberries. Repeat with 1 more layer of each. Insert a popsicle stick and freeze until solid, 4 to 5 hours.
  4. To serve: One at a time, dip a frozen ice pop mold into a bowl of warm water for 10 to 15 seconds. Gently pull the ice pop to release from the mold and serve.
