Boozy strawberry and blueberry cheesecake popsicles

Stir white sugar and water over medium heat a couple of minutes until clear; cool to room temperature.

Trim and quarter strawberries; blend with simple syrup and about three-quarters of a shot of vodka until smooth.

Divide between six popsicle molds and freeze until firm, at least an hour.

Mix room-temperature cream cheese with simple syrup until perfectly smooth, then vodka; pour over the frozen strawberry layer and freeze until firm.

Blend blueberries with simple syrup and vodka; top the cheesecake layer, insert sticks, and freeze completely solid, ideally overnight.
