Homemade Slurpees- The Refreshing Treat of the Summer!!

I don’t know about you, but Summer where I live is SO hot. I mean, it’s only the beginning of June and we are hitting the 90s!

Don’t get me wrong, I love Summer. Definitely one of my favorite seasons..😉 If you must know, Spring is my all time fav.

I love the outdoors, swimming, beach time (I’m going to miss the East Coast this summer! I already do!), park play dates, flip flop tan lines, parades, BBQ’s, and slurpees.

Slurpees, or slushies, are a very important piece of summer at my house. Nothing cools you off after a hot bike ride like a slurpee does!

Although, if I am being completely honest, I usually save the majority of the batch in the freezer for after the kids go to bed. Once they are tucked in, Dan and I go crazy on it. #noshame

The process couldn’t be more simple, you’ll have this recipe memorized in no time!

Tips for the PERFECT Slurpee

• You must use Seltzer Water. I have used flavored Seltzer Water before and it works great! I’ve also tested water and even Sprite, but no dice. Neither worked well at all. Just use Seltzer Water. 😊
• Use the powdered, un-sweetened drink powder mixes like Kool-Aid. I have tested the Kool-Aid Liquid but it didn’t work out nearly as well.
• The pellet ice is wonderful and can be bought at Taco Time, Sonic or (pretty sure!) Chick-Fil-A for a very fair price.
• I have a Blendtec Blender and LOVE it. I could go on and on, but I will just leave it there.
