Lemon Slushie
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sugar or 1/3 cup honey
- 4 cups ice cubes, or enough to almost fill
the blender
Get out your blender. Add the water and lemon juice. Pour in the
honey or other sweetener. If you use honey then lightly oil the
measuring cup before measuring the honey. This will make it all slip
out more easily.
Add the ice cubes. Process the mixture at high speed for 2 full
minutes. The ice should be completely chopped and the mixture will be
a lovely golden color. Divide the mixture between four 12-ounce
glasses. Garnish with a lemon wedge and a tall straw. Serve immediately.
Lemon-Mint Slushy: Brew mint tea in the normal way using
2-teabags to 1-cup of water. Allow it to steep long enough to
make it strong. Use this in place of the water in the original
recipe. Process as directed.
Lime Slushy: Replace the lemon juice with lime juice. This is
especially good with mint.
