Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled large ripe strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons honey or sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 cup ice cubes preferably crushed
  • 1/2 cup cold water or fruit juice for blending

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Place the hulled strawberries into the blender along with the honey or sugar.
  2. Add the ice cubes to the blender. This will give the slushie its frosty texture.
  3. Pour in the cold water or fruit juice to help facilitate blending and improve creaminess.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth and slightly slushy, about 30-45 seconds.
  5. Check the consistency—if it's too thick, add a splash more water or juice and blend briefly again.
  6. Pour the slushie into chilled glasses. The mixture should be vibrant red with a textured, icy appearance.
  7. Optional: Garnish with a fresh strawberry or a sprig of mint for a colorful touch.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy the cool, fruity burst with each sip!
