How to Make Skinny Margaritas: A Healthier Twist

The secret to crafting these skinny margaritas, which are lighter and lower in sugar, lies in swapping out the traditional triple sec for fresh orange juice. This substitution ensures that the flavors remain bright and vibrant while eliminating the added sugar and calories found in the sweet liqueur. By mixing orange juice with a touch of honey, lime juice, and tequila, you’ll create a tart and refreshing margarita mix. You might find it hard to resist enjoying it straight away instead of freezing it—and that’s perfectly fine!

Making Popsicles Without Molds: Creative Alternatives

Don’t let a lack of popsicle molds prevent you from satisfying your popsicle cravings. Chances are, you already have suitable items in your kitchen. Paper and plastic cups work wonderfully and can even be easier to use than actual popsicle molds! Other great options include small yogurt containers, ice cube trays for adorable mini popsicles, and even mini muffin tins.

If you’re like me and enjoy a spicy or smoky margarita, feel free to substitute tequila with its sibling, mezcal. To mimic the classic salty rim of a margarita, try dusting these popsicles with flaky sea salt or Tajín seasoning for a delightful touch of color and heat!
