Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh herbs (such as mint and basil) roughly chopped
  • 2 cups frozen fruit (such as berries or peaches)
  • 1.5 cups vodka
  • 0.5 cup simple syrup or honey adjust sweetness as desired
  • 0.5 cup water or tonic to help blend smoothly

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Combine the chopped herbs, frozen fruit, vodka, simple syrup, and water in a blender.
  2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth, thick, and slushy, with a vibrant color and a frosty texture.
  3. Pause to check the consistency; if it's too thick, add a splash more water and blend briefly until achieving scoopable, icy softness.
  4. Pour the mixture into glasses or bowls, allowing it to mound slightly for a decorative presentation.
  5. Optional: Garnish with additional fresh herbs or a small sprig on top for visual appeal.
  6. Serve immediately with a spoon or straw, enjoying the icy, flavorful burst with each sip.

Notes

For a firmer slushie, freeze the mixture for an additional 15-30 minutes before serving. Adjust sweetness and herbal intensity to taste.
