This summer I have been a little bit obsessed by slushies (you might know them as Slurpees?). I have experimented with making my own Fruit Juice Slushie at home, and here is my favourite version.
Fruit Juice Slushie
Ingredients
(none of the products mentioned are sponsored, I just like them)
- 3 fruit juice ice blocks (equal to about 70ml each – I use Berri Quelch but you could make your own)
- 150 – 250ml tropical fruit juice
- 1 scoop of fruit sorbet (I like Weiss Mango Sorbet)
Method
- Place the fruit juice ice blocks on the kitchen bench and, while still in their wrappers, smash them up a bit with a rolling pin. Cut the tops off and tip the contents into a blender, or a large jug (if using a stick blender).
- Add the juice and sorbet.
- Blitz with your blender until it turns into a slushie consistency.
- Pour into a glass, add a straw and slurp away!
What’s your favourite drink to help keep your cool in summer?

I try to con E into drinking milk (which she is generally not keen on) by giving her “delicious mango and banana drink” which is basically banana and mango smoothie (banana, mango, yoghurt, milk and a bit of vanilla essence whizzed up with a stick blender).

Yum, that sounds delish! I love banana and mango. Pebble turns her nose up at any kind of drink that isn’t milk or water. I suppose things could be worse?
