If you're looking for a recipe for a cool looking July 4th popsicle that will also get you a little tipsy, this frozen red, white and blueberry cheesecake recipe will do the trick. The [boozy Independence Day treat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spaghett-sicle) comes from the Host the Toast blog.

This 'poptail' -- a mix between a cocktail and a popsicle -- was almost called the absolute best frozen dessert the world has ever seen. The delicious July 4th popsicle doesn't have a strong alcoholic taste, as you wouldn't want it to overpower the cheesecake or fruit flavors. If you want to skip the alcohol all together, you can substitute the [Rumchata](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiked-dirty-soda) (or [Bailey's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rich-products-and-baileys)!) for milk. The strawberry, cheesecake and blueberry layers are also topped with a sprinkling of graham cracker crumbs for added decadence.
