Cherry Slushy
If you have fond memories of guzzling down a sugary-sweet slushy as a young kid, then I’ve got some fabulous news: I created a refreshing version made with only good-for-you ingredients that contains absolutely no added sugar.
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen pitted sweet cherries
- ½ cup frozen pineapple
- 1 cup cherry or berry flavored sparkling water
- 1 cup crushed ice or ice cubes
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in blender, and blend until thick and slushy. (Note: If the cherries and pineapple are frozen solid, you may need to stop, loosen up the contents with a spoon and stir a few times while it blends.)
- Add additional sparkling water or ice as needed to achieve desired slushy consistency.
Notes
• For a berry-flavored spin, you can use frozen berries (raspberries and blueberries) and berry-flavored sparkling water. Try my Raspberry Blueberry Slushy.
