These blueberry wine popsicles combine a simple blueberry syrup with Riesling, lime juice, and coconut water for a smooth, frozen treat. As they freeze, the mixture sets into a lightly icy texture with bursts of whole blueberries throughout. Easy to prepare ahead of time, this recipe is a practical option for warm weather, gatherings, or a simple make-ahead dessert with a refreshing finish.
