🥄 Ingredients:

• ¾ cup orange juice
  (Fresh or bottled, preferably pulp-free for a smoother texture.)

• ⅓ cup pineapple juice
  (Adds a tropical twist and natural sweetness.)

• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  (Brightens the flavor and adds citrusy zing.)

• ½ cup silver tequila
  (Use a good-quality blanco tequila for the best flavor.)

• 2–4 tablespoons grenadine
  (For that beautiful red “sunrise” effect—add to molds last.)

• Lime slices or wedges (optional)
  (For garnish inside the popsicles or as a side when serving.)

🌀 Instructions:

1. Mix the Boozy Base

In a large measuring cup or mixing bowl with a spout, combine:

• Orange juice

• Pineapple juice

• Lime juice

• Silver tequila
  Stir well to combine all liquids.

2. Prepare the Popsicle Molds

• If you want to add lime slices for decoration, place a small thin wedge or half-slice into each mold first.

• Slowly fill each popsicle mold about ¾ full with the juice-tequila mixture.

3. Add the Sunrise Effect

• Carefully pour or drizzle grenadine (about ½–1 tsp) into each mold. It will sink to the bottom, creating that classic “sunrise” layered look.
  Tip: Don’t stir after adding grenadine—just let it settle naturally.

4. Insert Sticks and Freeze

• Add popsicle sticks and place molds in the freezer for at least 6–8 hours or overnight until fully frozen.

5. Unmold and Serve

• To release the popsicles, run warm water over the outside of the mold for a few seconds.

• Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly!

🌟 Tips & Variations:

• Make it sweeter: Add a tablespoon of simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter pop.

• Make it mocktail-style: Omit tequila and replace with more orange juice or lemon-lime soda for a kid-friendly version.

• Add fruit chunks: Frozen pineapple chunks or maraschino cherries add color and texture.
