Ingredients
Blue Slushie
- 2 cups ice
- 2 cups diet citrus soda
- ¼ cup vanilla creamer or use half-n-half
- ½ teaspoon powdered, unsweetened blue Kool-Aid drink mix
Orange Slushie:
- 6 ounces pulp-free frozen orange juice concentrate
- ½ cup water
- 2 cups ice
- ¾ cup vanilla creamer or use half-n-half
Pink Layer:
- 8 tablespoon grenadine syrup
Instructions
Blue Slushie Layer
- Blend together ice, diet citrus soda, creamer, and powdered, unsweetened blue Kool-Aid drink mix.
- Pour into a container and set it in freezer while making the next layer.
Orange Slushie Layer
- Blend the pulp-free frozen orange juice concentrate, water, ice, and creamer.
Assembly
- Put the orange slushie in cups.
- Tilt the cups and slowly pour cherry grenadine syrup down the inside of the cup.
- Since the grenadine syrup has the most sugar, it will slowly settle on the bottom of the cup.
- Use the end of a straw to gently stir the cherry grenadine into the bottom of orange slushie to turn it pink.
- Carefully spoon the blue slushie on top of the orange slushie.
