One fantastic drink to cool you on one of those hot summer evenings. Kids love the sweetness and the fun of drinking from a lemon shell. Ingredients:
6 whole lemons, cut in half and juiced,reserve juice and empty lemon rind shells for later use |
1 lemon, cut into garnishing slices (1/8 thick) |
3/4 gallon ice |
1/2-3/4 cup lemon juice (store bought kind is terrific) |
1 cup splenda sugar substitute |
36 small red raspberries |
12 sprigs large leaf mint |
Directions:
1. You will also need: 6 straws, cut in half.
2. Place ice in a blender, add all ingredients except for the whole slicing/garnishing lemon, red raspberries, mint and empty lemon shells.
3. Blend all ingredients until completely smooth.
4. Fill each lemon rind shell full with the lemon slushie.
5. Place 3 red raspberries, mint sprig and lemon slice decoratively atop the lemon slushie.
6. Add straw.
7. Place in freezer (yes, the straw and all) for about 30-45 mins just enough to ice craze the slushie and allow the berries to slightly freeze.
