Yield:10 popsicles 1x
Ingredients
Scale
2 cups water
1 cup honey
4 strawberries, sliced
1 cup fresh mint leaves
1/3 cup bourbon whiskey
5 small strawberries, sliced
20 small fresh mint leaves
Instructions
In a 2-quart saucepan, stir together 2 cups water, 1 cup honey and 4 sliced strawberries. Heat over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes, stirring constantly to dissolve the honey and use the back of a wooden spoon to smash the strawberries.
Remove from heat; add 1 cup fresh mint leaves and set aside 1 hour to cool. Strain the syrup into a glass jar; discard solids. Stir in the Bourbon.
Divide the remaining strawberries and mint leaves among 10 popsicle molds. Pour the liquid mixture evenly between popsicle molds. Place sticks in popsicle molds. Freeze 8 hours, or until firm.
To remove popsicles, run warm water on the outside of the popsicle form until it releases.
