Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and halved
  • 1/4 cup blue raspberry syrup adjust for sweetness
  • 2 cups crushed ice or ice cubes blended

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Place the hulled strawberries in the blender and pulse a few times to start breaking them down.
  2. Add the blue raspberry syrup to the strawberries in the blender, then blend on high until the mixture is smooth and vibrant in color, about 30 seconds.
  3. Pour in the crushed ice gradually, and blend again until the mixture is thick, slushy, and reaches a scoopable consistency. You should see a frosty, textured surface with some small ice crystals.
  4. Pause the blender and check the texture; it should be icy and smooth with a bright color. If needed, add more crushed ice and blend briefly to thicken further.
  5. Pour the slushie into glasses, using a spoon or scoop to serve, ensuring a generous mound of icy goodness on top.
  6. Optionally, garnish with a fresh strawberry or a colorful straw for a playful, attractive presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy the chilled, candy-inspired flavor!

Notes

For extra flair, add a touch of lemon juice before blending, or top with whipped cream for a richer feel.
