Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries or fruit such as strawberries, mango, or pineapple
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice for bright citrus flavor
  • 2 oz tequila adjust according to taste
  • 1 cup ice cubes plus extra for adjusting consistency
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup optional, for sweetness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Measure the frozen fruit and add it directly into the blender jar. The frozen state helps create that perfect slushy texture.
  2. Pour in the fresh lime juice and add the tequila for a citrusy, boozy punch. Drizzle in honey or agave syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste.
  3. Fill the blender with ice cubes, enough to cover the frozen fruit mixture. This ice will help create the icy, slushy consistency.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth, thick, and evenly frozen. You might need to stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
  5. If the mixture is too thick, blend in a splash of water or additional lime juice until it reaches a pourable slushie consistency. If too thin, add more ice and blend again for a denser texture.
  6. Pour the refreshing slushie into chilled glasses. Optionally, rim the glasses with salt and a slice of lime for a festive touch.
  7. Garnish with extra lime slices or a few sprigs of mint if desired, then serve immediately for the best icy texture.
