I love refreshing popcicles when it warms up.  These are really great but you want to keep them away from the kids!

Makes five 2-and-1/4-oz. popsicles

Here is what you need:

1 cup honeydew juice (approximately a whole melon weighing 1lb, ripe)
1/3 cup cucumber juice (approximately half a cucumber weighing about 5oz.)
½ cup tequila
1 tablespoon triple sec
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Instructions:

1. Place the honeydew and cucumber in a food processor or a blender and process until everything is pureed. You want to give it a nice smooth texture.  Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice and mint syrup and process for another 20-30 seconds to blend well. I pulsed the processor a few time sto get things to start to mix then processed it for 20-30 seconds.  Pour mixture into popsicles mold.

2. Freeze for about 2 hours or until mixture starts to solidify enough to hold a popsicle stick upright. Insert popsicle sticks and finish freezing popsicles overnight. You want to make sure they have plenty of time to freeze.  Run hot water on the outside of popsicle molds for a 2-3 seconds this wil loosen them up.

Yummy!  Enjoy!  These are great after a BBQ for the adults!
