Ingredients

You’ll need:

  • 1 cup of blue sports drink (like Gatorade or Powerade)
  • 1 cup of cherry cola (like Cherry Coke)

  • 1 tablespoon of sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • Red food coloring (optional, for a more vibrant red)
  • Blue food coloring (optional, to enhance the blue color)
  • A blender
  • A tall glass

Prepare

I want that blue stuff.

1. Pour 1 cup of blue sports drink into the blender.

2. Add 1 cup of ice.

3. If you want a more vibrant blue color, add a few drops of blue food coloring.


Blend

Blend it like Beckham, but without the David Beckham part.

1. Place the lid on the blender securely.

2. Blend the mixture on high until it becomes a smooth, icy slush. This usually takes about 30-45 seconds.

3. Once blended, pour the blue slushie into your tall glass, filling it about halfway.


Cherry Cola Time

Time for the best part…

1. Rinse out the blender to remove any leftover blue mixture.

2. Pour 1 cup of cherry cola into the blender.

3. Add 1 cup of ice.

4. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar if you prefer a sweeter slushie.

5. Place the lid on the blender securely.

6. Blend the mixture on high until it becomes a smooth, icy slush. This usually takes about 30-45 seconds.


Layer

Lay it down…lay it down…

1. Carefully pour the blue slushie on top of the cherry cola in the glass. To create a nice layered effect, tilt the glass slightly and pour slowly.

2. Your icy blue slushie with a cherry cola twist aka “Arctic Blast Slushie is ready to enjoy! You can add a straw or a spoon for easier sipping.
