Ingredients
2 cups coconut milk
¾ cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons raw honey
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
¼ cup silver rum
½ cup sparkling water
Directions
In a 4-cup measuring pitcher or small bowl, combine the fresh lime juice and raw honey. Whisk vigorously for about one minute until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is well blended.
Pour the coconut milk into the lime and honey mixture. Add the silver rum and finely chopped fresh mint. Whisk all ingredients together until fully combined and evenly distributed.
Gently stir in the sparkling water until just incorporated—do not overmix as this may reduce the carbonation. Carefully divide the mixture among 6 popsicle molds, filling each about three-quarters full. Insert the popsicle sticks into the center of each mold.
Place the filled molds in the freezer. Freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight until completely solid. Once frozen solid, run warm water briefly over the outside of the mold to ease removal, then push the popsicles out from the bottom. Serve immediately or store in the freezer in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Comments
Mint and lime are standard at Charlotte grocers, and coconut milk, honey, and sparkling water pose no sourcing challenge at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, or Walmart. The real cost driver is rum—a fifth runs $15–25 depending on brand—but spread across six popsicles, that's $2.50–4 per serving, and the base ingredients are cheap, putting total cost around $4–5 per serving. The stated 185 minutes is honest if you count freezing time; active prep is perhaps 10 minutes. These are an adult treat that hold perfectly in the freezer and suit a summer entertaining scenario better than weeknight cooking. For a household looking for a make-ahead frozen cocktail that sidesteps the fussiness of a full bar, this works well.
