Bloody Mary Popsicles are a twist on a classic cocktail. It’s a fun and refreshing treat for parties, holiday brunches, or any time you want a boozy popsicle.
Over the long weekend, we were in Los Angeles, and the temperature was in the 90s. During the LA Times The Taste event, we had Bloody Mary popsicles, which really hit the spot in the scorching heat. I’ve always enjoyed the cocktail and I liked it in ice pop form even more.
So, when we got home, I made my own version, and I really love how they turned out. I’ve made a lot of alcohol-friendly popsicles this summer, and while this one may be a little plain-looking, it is one of my favorites. Because so much of the cocktail is tomato juice, these froze really well, too, and lasted longer than some of the other ice pops I’ve made that have higher alcohol content.
Ingredients
- Tomato juice
- Worcestershire sauce
- Tabasco
- Vodka
- Black pepper
Tomato juice: I like to use low-sodium tomato juice.
Worcestershire sauce: This adds a savory flavor and is a classic ingredient in bloody mary drinks. I don’t recommend leaving it out, but if you do, you might want to use tomato juice with more salt.
Tabasco: You can adjust the amount of heat in your popsicles by adjusting the hot sauce. You can also use different kinds of hot sauce to change the flavor.
Vodka: There’s not a lot of alcohol in the popsicles. If you add too much, they won’t freeze properly, so I don’t recommend adjusting the amount.
Recipe Tips
Recipe TipsThis is a really easy recipe. All you need to do is mix up the ingredients, pour the mixture into your popsicle molds, and freeze them.
It’s a good idea to taste the bloody mary mixture before you freeze it. You can adjust the amount of Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and black pepper. That way, you’ll know exactly what the popsicles will taste like once they’re frozen.
If you are making these for a party or brunch, plan to make them a day ahead so they have enough time to freeze before you want to serve them.
Homemade popsicles will keep for a couple of weeks in the freezer.
