Slushies!

Yes, there is an exclamation point at the end of it – because that’s how I feel when I think about frozen blended drinks. Exclamation pointy! This is not a recipe, because quite frankly you are just pouring stuff into a spinning ice cream maker. But let me tell you, the options are endless!
I make this for the kids with orange juice or pink lemonade:


But for me? That’s a different story. Coke is tasty – but SLUSHEE Coke is even better. Better than that? CHERRY COKE. Now you don’t have to go to 7-11 to get your fix, just make it at home!

Start with of can of Coke for each person you are serving – but I think the max should be 3 for a standard ice cream maker.

Then just pour into your prepped ice cream maker. This goes rather quickly. 20 minutes later you have tasty icy goodness, mmm mmmm.

What kind of ice cream maker do you have? Is there one you would recommend?

I have a Cuisinart ice cream maker. You can get a good deal on it, it’s not super fancy and does a fantastic job.

Tried the Cherry Coke recipe – why does mine stick to the sides of bowl of my Cuisinart? (Followed manuf. directions exactly..???)

Really? I have no idea. You can always stop the machine and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides, but otherwise, I have not had a problem with that…
