My friend Katie made this slush at our girls night out a few weeks ago. It was delicious! I had been craving it ever since so when Thanksgiving rolled around I thought it was the perfect opportunity to whip some up! We didn't have a very large group this year, so we just broke the frozen slush off in chunks, poured the ginger ale over our cups and enjoyed it all weekend long. This slush would obviously be wonderful in the summer but also works great for a holiday party treat. Enjoy!
Katie's Slush
Submitted by Amy ~ The Sisters Cafe
1/2 c. sugar
4 c. water
12 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate
6 oz. frozen lemonade concentrate
1 (48oz) can pineapple juice
3-4 bananas, mashed very well
1 bottle of Ginger Ale
Bring sugar and water to a boil. Cool slightly. Stir sugar water, orange juice, lemonade, pineapple juice, and bananas until mixed well. Freeze until solid. A few minutes before serving, remove from freezer. Using a knife, cut chunks off and break apart the slush a bit and place in a punch bowl. If it is too frozen, you may defrost slush in the microwave for a few seconds but be extra careful not to melt the slush. Using a potato masher or other desired method, mash slush until it is the right consistency. If you like punch a little chunkier, don't mash as much. When mashed, pour ginger ale over the slush and serve immediately.
This was SO yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great recipe - loved it!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the perfect drink to have on a hot day.
ReplyDeleteSo, I have been thinking about this drink, which a family in my ward used to make. I have just been to lazy to email them for the recipe. I think it would be funny if it were the same "Katie" that I know, especially since I found this on Pinterest! LOL
ReplyDeleteoh man, that looks SOOOOO good to me right now. I wish I had some! Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteThis is an old family recipe we've used since I was a kid at every holiday celebration. It also tastes great with cherry 7-up and can be blended with water to make Orange Julius.
