Description
Berry bliss sweeps through this Triple Berry Slushy, offering a frosty symphony of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Cool refreshment awaits with minimal effort, inviting you to savor summer’s most delightful liquid escape.
Ingredients
Scale
Fresh Berries:
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup raspberries
Liquid Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup water or sparkling water
- Juice of 1 lemon
Sweeteners and Ice:
- 1 cup ice
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
Instructions
- Thoroughly cleanse the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries under cool running water, removing any stems or imperfections. Slice strawberries into uniform pieces to facilitate smooth blending.
- Transfer the prepared berries into a powerful blender, adding crushed ice, liquid (water or sparkling water), natural sweetener (honey or agave), and fresh citrus juice.
- Activate the blender at maximum speed, processing until the mixture transforms into a uniform, velvety texture. Pause periodically to scrape down the container walls, ensuring comprehensive incorporation of all ingredients.
- Evaluate the slushy’s viscosity, incrementally introducing additional liquid if the consistency appears excessively dense. Aim for a pourable yet frosty composition.
- Immediately cascade the vibrant mixture into chilled serving glasses. Optional: Embellish with whole berries or a delicate mint sprig for visual appeal and aromatic enhancement. Consume promptly to preserve the optimal temperature and textural qualities.
Notes
- Choose ripe, fresh berries for the most vibrant flavor and maximum natural sweetness in your slushy.
- Freeze some berries beforehand to create an extra icy, thick texture without diluting the taste with too much ice.
- Swap honey with maple syrup or stevia for different dietary needs like vegan or low-sugar preferences.
- Use frozen berries as a time-saving alternative when fresh berries are not in season or too expensive.
