Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups lemonade
- 1 cup ice
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup frozen blackberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon edible glitter or shimmer dust (optional)
- Food coloring (blue, purple, and pink – optional for visual effect)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the lemonade, ice, lemon juice, and a small pinch of edible glitter if using. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and slushy.
- Divide Mixture: Pour the blended mixture evenly into three separate bowls to prepare the different color layers.
- Add Color and Fruit: In the first bowl, blend in the frozen blueberries to create a deep purple hue. In the second bowl, blend in the frozen blackberries for a darker color tone. Leave the third bowl as is or add a drop of pink food coloring for contrast.
- Layer the Slushies: Alternate spoonfuls of each colored slush into serving glasses, layering to mimic a galaxy effect.
- Create the Swirl: Gently swirl the layered colors together using a straw or spoon to achieve a marbled appearance.
- Serve Immediately: Garnish with a sprinkle of edible glitter on top if desired, and serve the slushie right away for the best texture and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use either pre-made or homemade lemonade depending on preference and availability.
- For an adult version, add 1–2 oz of vodka or gin per serving to make it boozy.
- Freezing the fruit in advance will create a thicker and icier texture to the slushie.
