Margarita Lollipop

Step 1

Mix together all ingredients, except 1 teaspoon of the tequila, in a medium saucepan until the sugar is completely saturated.

Step 2

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring gently with a silicone spatula until sugar is dissolved. Then continue to boil until the mix hits 300 degrees Fahrenheit without stirring.

Step 3

Remove the mixture from the heat and quickly mix in the remaining teaspoon of liquor.

Step 4

Quickly spoon or pour the syrup into either lollipop molds or dollop onto a silicone mat.

Step 5

Place a lollipop stick in the center of each candy and twirl it so that it’s fully covered in syrup.

Step 6

Let the lollipops cool completely, then peel from the molds.

Step 7

Store in an airtight container, or cover with candy wrappers and tie with string.
