I’ve been seeing videos of people on TikTok of people turning simple freezer pops into boozy ones. Having some pops on hand, I thought I’d try this out for you guys to see if it actually works. What do you need to do this at home? A room temperature freezer pop, scissors, spirit of choice (I used tequila with a green pop thinking the combination might taste like a margarita. The possible flavors are endless!) and a straightener. Side note: Ignore the old straightener - I didn't want to use my new one on this experiment just in case it was a flop.

First, I plugged up my straightener to get it heated and ready to seal. I cut open the pop and poured out a little bit of the juice. I replaced the liquid with tequila, making sure I still had room to seal the tube. I clamped the plastic for a few seconds and checked to see if it was sealed. For good measure, I clamped again to ensure the seal. After a few hours in the freezer, the boozy pop was ready to enjoy! 

It tasted pretty good, but if this is an honest review (and if I were one to regularly have a hankering for freezer pops) I’d much rather buy an already boozy option from the grocery store. It took more effort than I felt it was worth, but my biggest concern is kids getting them mixed up with the non-alcoholic ones. So, if you do choose to try this out, please make sure the “adult” pops are safely separated from the kid friendly ones. 

I hope you all enjoy a great weekend with your family! Stay cool in whatever you’re doing this hot summer day!
