Do you want to drink a light, thirst-quenching aperitif, or instead, do you want to taste the most thirst-quenching cocktail of the whole summer?

Well, get ready, because you will make it yourself at home, but don’t worry, it’s a straightforward cocktail recipe, and you don’t need any extraordinary skills or a shaker.

Today you will make the Gin & Tonic popsicles. And don’t worry, the most challenging part is unscrewing the cap of the tonic water bottle.

Woooow, cheers and cheers, yes, the popsicles that all adults dream of are finally here!

You can also rent a bee and go around selling them or catering with these popsicles.

Probably no one in the world could resist these gin and tonic popsicles, a frozen, portable, delicious, and easy-to-eat aperitif. Imagine a sweltering wedding on a wet July day cooled by these icy icicles!

Wouldn’t that be a dream?

There is only one warning since the tonic is carbonated, and it takes a bit more to freeze than a puree, leave them in the freezer overnight. To avoid the annoying pitted effect, mix well, degas the tonic water, and not be shy with the sugar syrup.

And if you want a popsicle even for 10 in the morning, prepare the popsicles without gin, and they will still be delicious a mouth-watering non-alcoholic aperitif.

You just have to go to Grandpa Pig’s garden to pick the cucumbers! Yes, because you need excellent quality cucumbers, which are not shamelessly bitter, otherwise, they go haywire with the quinine of the tonic, which when frozen becomes even more bitter. So watch out for the cucumber!

Ingredients and doses for making gin and tonic popsicles

4 servings

  • 1 cucumber
  • 2 lemons or limes
  • 16 cl of gin
  • 40 cl of tonic water
  • 8 drops of Angostura, or your favorite aromatic bitters
  • 8 cl of sugar syrup

How to make gin and tonic popsicles

Squeeze the lemons and strain the juice.

Chop and cut the cucumber into small pieces. Set aside 4 or 8 slices to leave them whole in the popsicles.

Crush the cucumber pieces in a shaker or jar to extract the juice, filter, and crush what remains in a colander to recover every drop.

Pour all the ingredients into a jug, mix, and pour into the molds to make the popsicles.

Put in two slices of cucumber and also lime or lemon if you want, then let it rest in the freezer for the whole night.

Alcoholic Popsicles with Cucumber Gin Tonic Water, Popsicle Cocktail

This is the basic recipe for making simple gin and tonic popsicles with an ultra-thirst-quenching bitter taste.

Feel free to flavor your popsicles with rosemary, sage, ginger, berries, pieces of grapefruit pulp, orange, mandarin, peach, apricot, and of course, watermelon.

Many will complain about the presence of sugar syrup, but you don’t need to be a purist at all costs: the sugar helps the ingredients stay tied, and they freeze much better and faster.

Beware, it’s not a hipster gin and tonic, but just a different and fun way to enjoy our favorite cocktail, so take it easy.
