Jalapeno Peach Tequila Pops

July 29, 2016 By Phillip @ SouthernFATTY.com 8 Comments

Jalapeño Peach Tequila Popsicles from SouthernFATTY.com

Here we are, y’all. Mid-summer. Weekends at the lake, failed diets, patio parties with friends. It’s all in full swing and I’m not going to do anything to slow down the pace. Put those crazy college tequila memories aside. I’m going to show you my favorite frozen infusion for all of my summer shindigs.

We’re taking some homemade jalapeño simple syrup, fresh local peaches and a splash of some of the best tequila you can get your hands on to make the best frozen pops you’ll grab out of your freezer.

By now, you all know how I really feel about the summer heat. I absolutely love spending time outside with friends. By spending time outside, I mean in the shade. With a drink in hand. And preferably a fan or two blowing my hair like I’m in a 90s music video. This heat, y’all! I just can’t deal with it. In an effort to bump up the time with my pals, I decided to forgo the regular cookies and cake that I would take to get-togethers and make some chilled treats.

In comes the tequila…

I used to have a bit reserve about anything tequila. You hear all of those horror stories from people, ya know. “Oh. I don’t do tequila. Not since College….”. Bah-humbug! You just need to find a good tequila. Usually, people relate great tequila to a great price tag. I was lucky enough to discover the amazingness that is Olmeca Altos Tequila. I’ve honestly never found a more smooth, pure tequila at this price range. It’s 100% blue agave crushed by a 2-ton tahona stone, double distilled in small-batch 100% copper stills. This is what you would find in those top shelf bottles. Care and meticulous process is given to every single batch. It’s priced well enough that I love to grab a couple and just play with it in the kitchen a bit. It’s the perfect margarita mixer, but can also be enjoyed on its own, if you are so bold.

Tequila has a new name, and this is it. This certainly isn’t the last summer recipe that you’ll see here with this. I’ve got a bottle or two of the reposado (aged in whiskey barrels… hello!) begging to be made into something sweet. That is, if I don’t sip it all away first…

Bring on the summer, the tequila, and the heat! These perfectly chilled pops with a hint of spice and a delicate balance of tequila and sweet Southern peaches will help you enjoy the heat. It’s not a complicated recipe, but is most certainly a summer star.

Cheers, y’all.

    YUM! I love the peaches and jalapeno flavors together! I usually only like tequila in fruity frozen margaritas, but I bet these are really tasty!
