Well, you did hear me right. Apparently, people are spiking them ice pops with stuff like vodka or rum or another favorite liquor. I'm not even kidding you. It's true.

I had no idea about this until I saw a video on TikTok.

And then I totally freaked out. "I must do this," I thought to myself. But first I wanted to share this trick with you so we can cheers together, hee-hee.

I can't believe it's so simple.

All you need to do is cut off the top of your unfrozen ice pop. Pour some of the liquid out to make room for the booze. Then, add your drink of choice. For me, it would be either rum or tequila.

How does that sound to you?

Delicious or what? Okay, but how do you seal the package back up, you ask? I'm going to tell you right now. Get this, people are actually using a hair straightener to do so. Say that again?

I know what you're thinking.

It sounds pretty weird, right? That's what I thought when I first heard about it. But when you see how it's done, you'll totally get it. The heat from the straightener will simply seal the ice pop package.

Why haven't I thought of that? Ha, ha!

Okay, make sure the straightener isn't on too high of a temperature. You wouldn't want to burn the package, eh? You can also use some parchment paper as a layer of protection between the two.

As you can see in the video, it totally works.

OMG! What a cool idea! I can't get over this. Just when I thought ice pops couldn't get any better. Now I can add my favorite alcoholic drink to them and voilĂ  a perfect summer treat.

This video quickly went viral, and now it has over 357,000 likes.

Wow! I bet everybody is so excited to make their own spiked versions of their favorite ice pops flavors. And this trick with the hair straightener is totally genius.

I've got to tell you I can't wait to make these.

These spiked ice pops will be a perfect sweet treat during our summer vacation. I have to make sure we pack lots of ice pops, ha, ha. So will you be making these this summer or what?
