# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They taste like a vacation in popsicle form—boozy enough for adults, elegant enough to impress.
  • The frozen fruit chunks create little flavor surprises with every bite, making them feel more indulgent than they actually are.
  • They're surprisingly easy to make and give you an excuse to buy beautiful, ripe fruit.
02 -
  • If your fruit floats to the top instead of staying suspended, your mixture is too warm when you pour it—chill the blended base for 15 minutes before pouring for better results.
  • Don't skip the gentle tapping to release air bubbles, or you'll end up with icy pockets that mess with the texture and make them harder to remove from the molds.
03 -
  • Chill your blender pitcher or the blended mixture for 15 minutes before pouring if you want the fruit to stay suspended instead of floating to the top—warm liquid makes everything want to rise.
  • Use a small funnel when pouring into the molds to avoid spills and to have better control over how full each one gets.
