Ingredients

• FOR THE SIMPLE SYRUP:
• 1 cup Water
• 1 cup Sugar
• FOR EACH SLUSHIE:
• 1 cup Frozen Fruit
• 1/4 cup Ice
• 1-1/2 ounce, fluid Cold Vodka
• 3 Tablespoons Simple Syrup
• 2 teaspoons Fresh Lime Or Lemon Juice (Preferably Lime)

Preparation

Step 1

For the simple syrup:
Bring the water and sugar to a simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sugar has dissolved. Pour into a bowl and set aside to cool.

For the slushie (double or triple as needed, depending on the size of your blender):
Chill your glass(es) in the freezer before making.

Combine everything in the jar of a blender and puree on low at first and then on high until you have a very well-blended creamy blend of everything. Carefully pour into the prepared glass and garnish if desired. Serve immediately.
