Slushy Ingredients
- 1 cup orange juice (frozen in ice cube trays)
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt (plain or Greek for added tang)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for added sweetness)
- Optional: splash of vodka or rum for an adult version
Instructions
- Prepare the Orange Juice Ice Cubes: Pour the orange juice into ice cube trays and freeze for at least 3 hours, or until completely solid. This step ensures the slushy will have the perfect icy texture.
- Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the frozen orange juice cubes, vanilla yogurt, and honey. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the slushy is too thick, adjust the consistency by adding a splash of extra orange juice or water.
- Serve and Enjoy: Pour the blended slushy into glasses immediately. For an adult version, add a splash of vodka or rum to each glass and stir gently before serving.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor and added protein.
- Honey is optional and can be adjusted based on sweetness preference.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute vanilla yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
- Serve immediately after blending to maintain the slushy texture.
- To make it kid-friendly, omit any alcohol.
