For this Mother’s Day serve your brunch cocktails on a stick. I will be making this one along with a few others. If your name is Teri and you are reading this, I’ll make yours a mocktail popsicle. For everyone else, lets enjoy margarita popsicle by way of some sweet watermelon, limeade and a few blackberries for a punch of tartness and of course spiked with tequila and triple sec.

Strawberry Shortcake Bars
I couldn’t decide whether or not I wanted to make a regular strawberry cheesecake or strawberry shortcake, so I went with a combination for what you see here. It has a cheesecake filling with a little dry yellow cake mix and puréed strawberries. Along with that I threw in a surprising ingredient, a banana, which I discovered helps create a super creamy cheesecake filling. Then I sprinkled the filling with some strawberries and finished it with a streusel topping

Nevermind the name of this cocktail turned popsicle. Gimmicky-I know, but that’s what its called and its really good. It’s traditionally made with orange and cranberry juice, vodka, and peach schnapps, but I went for the less mainstream version.

For these Sex on the Beach popsicles I kept the pineapple body and skipped the cranberry juice for crushed raspberries and changed out the Chambord for my new obsession Pama, a pomegrante liqueur. Hit the jump to Endless Simmerfor the recipe.
