Ingredients
Liquid Ingredients
- 1 cup white wine
- 3 Tablespoons Grand Marnier orange liquor
- 2/3 cup peach juice
- 1/4 cup club soda
- 1 Tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Fruit
- 1 1/3 cups diced mixed fruit (such as peaches, strawberries and pineapple)
Instructions
- Mix Liquids: In a large pitcher or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the white wine, Grand Marnier, peach juice, club soda, and freshly squeezed lime juice until well combined.
- Prepare Molds: Divide the diced mixed fruit evenly among the popsicle molds, ensuring the fruit is distributed well to create a colorful and flavorful popsicle.
- Fill Molds: Pour the sangria mixture over the diced fruit in each mold, filling them up to the top.
- Initial Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours until the mixture has partially firmed up but is not fully solid.
- Add Sticks: Once slightly frozen, insert the popsicle sticks carefully into each mold so they stand upright.
- Final Freeze: Return the molds to the freezer and allow the popsicles to freeze solid, which will take at least 6 hours or overnight for best results.
- Serve: To serve, run the popsicle molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles before gently pulling them out.
Notes
- No added sugar is used as the natural sweetness comes from peach juice and fresh fruit.
- Alcohol content remains due to the use of white wine and Grand Marnier, so these are intended for adults.
- Adjust freeze times according to your freezer’s temperature; colder freezers will solidify faster.
- Use fresh or frozen fruit as desired, but fresh fruit will provide the best texture.
- Club soda adds a slight fizz and lightness to the popsicles, but can be omitted if preferred.
