Foodie blogger 'Hungry Girl Por Vida' has crafted Watermelon-Mint Ice Pops that should only be enjoyed by adults. This grown up summer snack features tequila in its list of ingredients.

These peculiar popsicles fuse a list of flavors for one exceptional ice pop. With zero artificial flavors or juices, Watermelon-Mint Ice Pops offer the taste of fresh watermelon, minty syrup, sour lime and the powerful kick of tequila. Stated as a "sweet, herbal, fruity, boozy blend," these ice pops are the perfect snack for upcoming [porch parties and cookouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boom-pop-wine).

Though this recipe is a winner as it is, 'Hungry Girl' does offer a few adjusts to make this recipe appeal to all audiences. For a [kid-friendly drink](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mocktail-sorbet-bars), opt out of the tequila while the mint can be replaced with basil.
