Blueberry Citrus Slushie with Mint and Vinegar

This blueberry slushie is a cold, refreshing drink made by blending fresh blueberries with citrus juice, mint leaves, and a splash of vinegar to enhance the fruit's natural warmth. The mixture is frozen until slushy and smooth, resulting in a vibrant, icy beverage with a slightly tangy kick and a hint of mint. Its final appearance is a vivid, frosty purple with tiny flecks of mint and citrus zest throughout.
