Coconut Mojito Ice Pops | Boozy Popsicle

Summer is the perfect time to make Coconut Mojito Ice Pops for your next adult party. Turning your favorite summer cocktail into a boozy popsicle is a great way to enjoy a Coconut Mojito. It’s a cocktail on a stick!

Ahh summer time cocktail Popsicle fun is coming your way! This Coconut Mojito recipe was inspired by my love of the Coconut Mojito. I made a Coconut Mojito not long after drinking a coconut Mojito at Bahama Breeze. I fell in love at first sip.

It is my favorite Mojito cocktail.  I of course had to try and make a Coconut Mojito recipe that comes darn close to being a copycat Bahama Breeze coconut Mojito recipe. It’s close enough for me!

There is no better way to cool off in this scorching Florida heat then to enjoy the refreshing coolness you can get when eating a frozen cocktail Popsicle on a hot day.

These creamy Coconut Mojito Ice Pops are sweet and delicious. Made with Bacardi coconut rum, coconut milk, fresh limes, fresh mint picked from my container garden and just a touch of homemade mint syrup to give it just enough minty sweetness to make it a perfect summer cocktail sweet frozen treat.

I love the way you cane see the slices of lime embedded in the frozen ice pop with the chopped mint scatter through out the cocktail ice pop.
