Strawberry Slushies

Hello everyone! We’ve had such a wonderful summer here in the Midwest! Not to many really hot days, which is very unusual for us and not a lot of air conditioning either, but as much as I enjoy the mild temps I love those Hot days too! The days that scream summer! Well, the other day we had a real summer day, as I like to call it. It was hot, hot hot! The kind of day where you’re looking for something refreshing. So, I made my favorite go to summer drink, Strawberry Slushies.

They are so quick to whip up and really refreshing. If you make them a little thicker, like I did here, just add a super cute wooden spoon.

It’s such a cute way to display your drinks and a fun way to enjoy them too!

And if you prefer the straws, that works too.

Either make them slightly thinner or wait for them to melt, which they do pretty quickly.

Ingredients: frozen drink mix (I used strawberry daiquiri); orange juice, ice cubes. (you can substitute the strawberry daiquiri, with frozen lemonade, limeade, grape juice or so many others) This is the non-alcoholic version, but for the adults, just add a little vodka.)

Put the daiquiri contents in mixer, using that same container that the strawberry mix came in, fill it full with orange juice, add several ice cubes and blend away until smooth. Fill the glasses. It’s just that easy.
