Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries hulled and sorted
  • 1 cup ice cubes adjust for desired thickness
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup optional, for sweetness
  • 1 squeeze lemon juice optional, enhances flavor

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cup

Method
 

  1. Add the strawberries to your blender, making sure they are evenly spaced.
  2. Pile in the ice cubes on top of the berries, creating a mound that looks frosty and inviting.
  4. Secure the lid on your blender and start blending on high speed, gradually increasing until the mixture is thick, icy, and smooth with some small bits of fruit still visible.
  5. Stop the blender and check the consistency; if it’s too thick, add a splash of water or juice and blend again briefly until the texture loosens just enough to sip.
  6. Pour the vibrant slushie into glasses, revealing a bright, icy mixture with a slightly chunky texture and fresh berry specks.

Notes

For a smoother texture, pulse briefly if the mixture is lumpy. Adjust sweetness or tartness with more honey or lemon as needed. Serve immediately for the best icy freshness.
