Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 2 tablespoons sugar syrup optional for sweetness
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional food coloring or fruit purees for color and flavor variations

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Add milk, vanilla ice cream, ice cubes, sugar syrup, and vanilla extract to the blender.
  2. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and slightly frosty, with tiny ice particles visible.
  3. Pause to check the texture—if it’s too thick, add a splash more milk and blend briefly to loosen.
  4. If desired, add a few drops of food coloring or a spoonful of fruit purees for vibrant flavor and appearance. Blend again for a few seconds to incorporate.
  5. Pour the slushie mixture into glasses, filling about three-quarters full for a generous serve.
  6. Serve immediately with a fun straw or spoon to enjoy the icy, creamy texture.

Notes

For an extra icy texture, add more ice and blend longer. Use different flavorings to customize your slushie like chocolate syrup or berry purees.
