Wanna see something hilarious? Watch Oprah make a Moscow Mule (her & my favorite drink). She also does the same lime squeezing trick I do (when no one is looking). Learned that one from Alton Brown. Thanks, buddy.

I took these pictures in the morning (before I had coffee!) and soooo wanted to finish the batch right there on the spot. I stared at the clock…counted the hours until happy hour and sadly wrapped up the popsicles for later.

Ginger beer is my go-to mixer btw. This one (Reed’s) happens to be my favorite.

The bubbles in the ginger beer make the popsicle a little effervescent and the lime is perfectly balanced by both the ginger beer & vodka. It’s cocktail heaven… in popsicle form.
