Strawberry slush

Those of you who are fortunate enough to live in a annually hot climate, will be overjoyed with this simple frozen strawberry slushie recipe. I’m experiencing a nostalgic moment with this recipe in particular, as it reminds me of when I was a young girl.

I would often purchase a slushie drink en route from school, whenever the weather was scotching hot. I relished the opportunity to cool off with a quick trip to the shops for some slushie

I was addicted to them, to the extent that I do recall my failed efforts at trying to make a topical flavoured slush. Back then I didn’t have the luxury of a high speed blender.

Now that I think about it I’m not even sure what equipment I used for my sub par attempt? One thing I do know is how terrible the results were. Although I was very young, that memory still remains in the forefront of my mind.

How to make a frozen strawberry slushie

Slushies are relatively simple to make, all you need is some strawberries – a great source of antioxidants, vitamin c, fibre and an excellent source of potassium and manganese , a large quantity of ice and some dates for extra sweetness.
