Speaking of desserts, as soon as I was asked to participate in the BBQ, I knew I was doing these pops. It's nice to make stuff for the kids, but these are Adults Only.


My only problem: I didn't have molds. I went to Target and found some, but they were $12.99. About $8.99 more than I wanted to spend. I spent 2 days looking for them and all I needed to do was go to Marshall's. $6.99. Boom. Insert celebration dance here!


I used some of that very good sweet potato vodka in these little guys.

And fresh blueberries. I'm still into blueberries! I can't help it.

They're smooth, a little creamy and a great finish to a big, grilled holiday meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 can coconut milk (13.5 oz)
  • 3 T Covington Sweet Potato Vodka (50ml or ONE airplane bottle)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Whisk together coconut milk, vodka and powdered sugar in a small bowl or measuring cup. Set aside. 
  2. Place the blueberries in a large bowl and muddle slightly. 
  3. Spoon blueberries into each ice pop mold. 
  4. Pour in coconut milk mixture and top with more blueberries and juice.
  5. Freeze 4-6 hours.

Notes:

TIP: Because alcohol does not freeze, do not add extra vodka or you'll have a mess on your hands.
