What’s better than a refreshing summertime drink on a hot day? Slushies are one of the most popular drinks in America. It is estimated that Americans consume more than 3 billion slushies every year!
But if you want to make your own, it can be hard to find the right recipe. With this blog post, I’ll show you how to mix up some delicious and easy-to-make slushie recipes for any occasion – from kids’ birthday parties to lazy days at home with friends.
I would always make homemade slushies at home. I would take a gallon of ice cream and beets, filling the blender up to the top with it, then mix until combined.
After that, I would pour in orange juice and sugar, usually about an hour’s worth or so. The end result is this delicious pink drink!
In this post, we will learn how to make two amazing slushies like this one.
Kool Aid Slushie Recipe
Ingredients
To make a slushie, you need some simple and cheap items. The list is as follows:
- Club soda (or tonic water, or Sprite)
- Sugar
- Kool-aid powder
- Ice. You don’t need to buy any ice from the store if you have an ice maker in your fridge or ice trays in your freezer.
For this recipe, we’ll be using Kool-Aid mixed with water because they give an extra tangy flavor that pairs well with fruit juices or punch drinks like Hawaiian Punch.
Instructions
- First, choose the flavor of your drink. Kool-aid comes with a variety of flavors to suit any taste preference – from cherry and grape flavors to more exotic options such as apple or lemonade.
- Mix in some sugar for sweetness (you can adjust it depending on how much you like).
- Add ice cubes (crushed using a blender) until there are enough for two drinks.
- Pour in club soda into each cup/glass halfway.
- Stir well.
- Top off with the remaining amount of club soda using an easy funnel if necessary.
- Enjoy! You will have just made yourself two delicious slushies.
This is really all you need to know about making this summertime favorite!”
Just make sure not to use too much sugar, otherwise, your slushie won’t have enough of a flavor!
Alternatives To Kool-Aid
Some other drinks that can be used to make slushies are iced tea, lemonade, or even some juices.
The only downside is that these types of beverages will not have the same color as a Kool-Aid Slushie would!
This is a delicious, refreshing summertime drink that will cool you off on even the hottest of days.
It doesn’t matter if it’s made with Kool-Aid or lemonade, as both are great bases for creating slushies!
The directions above will show you how to make them either way.
They’re so easy and simple too; there’s no reason not to try one for yourself soon!
With how easy it is to create this delicious drink, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t try one for yourself soon and answer the question: Is making your own slushy better than buying them?
We’re sure you’ll think so.
Frozen Fruit Slushie In A Blender

1) Pick out your favorite flavor of frozen fruit that will go into your drink (I recommend raspberry).
2) Put 8-10 ounces or about 1 cup of freshwater into your blender.
3) Add 4-6 ice cubes or about
