Ingredients
100% fruit juice concentrate
12 fluid ounces water
3 cups ice
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before beginning.
Pour the fruit juice concentrate and water into a blender.
Add half of the ice (about 1.5 cups) to the blender, being careful not to fill it above the maximum fill line to prevent overflow.
Start blending on a low to medium speed, then gradually add the remaining ice while blending until the mixture reaches a smooth, slushy consistency.
Pour the slush into serving glasses and enjoy immediately.
Comments
This is an honest, dead-simple beverage that costs under $1 per serving and uses ingredients stocked everywhere in Charlotte—fruit juice concentrate at any Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, or Walmart, plus tap water and ice from any kitchen. The ten-minute claim is accurate; you're literally thawing concentrate and blending. It's perfect for summer entertaining with zero leftovers to worry about since it's consumed immediately, though in North Carolina's heat this works especially well as a cold-serve option when local berries or citrus are in season if you sub in fresh juice.
