Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 cups sugar
  • 4 cups water
  • 6 oz frozen orange juice concentrate do not add water
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 46 oz. can pineapple juice

Instructions

  • Combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat until sugar is dissolved.
  • Add juices.
  • Fill 6 or 7 ice cube trays with mixture.
  • Freeze until firm.
  • Remove cubes from trays and store in freezer bags.
  • Use within 6 months
  • Place cubes in glass and add lemon lime soda.
  • Let stand a few minutes and stir to turn to slush.

Notes

  1. Let cubes soften slightly before blending Take the slush cubes out of the freezer 5–10 minutes before blending. This helps them break down more easily and gives you a smoother, slushie texture.
  2. Customize the flavor Switch up the fruit juice or add different fruits to create new flavor combinations. Pineapple, orange, berry blends, or even a splash of lime juice can give your slush a fun twist.
  3. Keep a batch ready all summer Store slush cubes in a freezer-safe bag or container so you always have them on hand. They’re perfect for last-minute guests, backyard gatherings, or a quick afternoon cool-down.
  4. Make it party ready. For gatherings, serve the slush in a punch bowl with lemon-lime soda or sparkling water. Garnish with fresh fruit slices or mint for a festive and refreshing summer drink everyone will love.
