Mint Julep Popsicles

Add sugar and water to a medium sauce pan over medium-low heat and stir until the sugar completely dissolves.

Once the sugar has dissolved, turn off the heat and add the fresh mint. Using a muddler or wooden spoon, lightly muddle the mint. Let steep until the mixture has cooled to room temperature (~45 minutes). Once cooled, strain through a fine mesh strainer.

Add the bourbon and stir to combine, then pour into your popsicle molds. Place in the freezer. Check back after about 45 minutes (depending on the temperature of your freezer) and add your popsicle sticks. Keep in the freezer until frozen solid.

Once the popsicles have frozen and you’re ready to enjoy, carefully remove them from the molds.
