Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ice cubes crushed for easier blending
  • 1/2 cup blue raspberry syrup adjust more or less for sweetness
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice for tartness
  • 1 cup cold water to help blending

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Place the ice cubes into the blender, creating a base for the slushie.
  2. Add the blue raspberry syrup over the ice, providing vibrant flavor and color.
  3. Squeeze in the fresh lemon juice to introduce a bright, tart contrast.
  4. Pour in the cold water to facilitate smooth blending and achieve a slushy consistency.
  5. Secure the lid on the blender and pulse a few times to start breaking up the ice, then blend on high until the mixture is smooth and icy, about 30 seconds.
  6. Check the texture—once it’s thick, smooth, and icy with no large ice chunks, stop the blender.
  7. Pour the colorful slushie into glasses, using a spoon if needed to scrape out any remaining icy goodness.
  8. Serve immediately for the best icy texture, garnished with a lemon wedge or a straw if desired.

Notes

Adjust the amount of syrup and lemon juice to suit your preferred tartness and sweetness. For an extra fun presentation, layer with whipped cream or add a splash of soda for fizz.
