This recipe is for anyone asking how do you make a slushies at home or from scratch.

Let me start by letting you know that a slushy is a slushie and that a slushie is a slushy.
There are really two ways to spell this depending on who you ask. However, in plural they are all slushies! 🙂

Making the slushies is relatively easy as there are not a lot of ingredients.

The biggest challenge however, may be in getting the correct texture and temperature for serving as everyone has different tastes. What you will need is a blender (or slushie machine), ice, and you flavor ingredients.

 

You may be wondering what are the benefits of eating watermelon.

Yes, I get that we are basically drinking the watermelon in this recipe but, it is indeed watermelon.
Nothing has been altered in the watermelon in the name of this recipe.

Watermelon is sweet so it must be loaded with sugar, right?

Watermelon is relatively low in sugar yet, it is a good source for Vitamin C.
You may be surprised to learn that watermelon is about 90% water, making it a decent fruit choice for yet another reason.
 

Here are some tips for making homemade slushies

While this recipe is for watermelon and kiwi, you could sub in or add another fruit. I like strawberries in this recipe too!

More helpful tips for you.

1. This recipe is even better because we are making it so colorful thanks to the layers. To enhance the colors of you layers, feel free to add a few drops of food coloring to each layer when you are blending it up.
2. Everyone seems to have their own taste as far as sweetness goes. Feel free to adjust the sweetness of your slushie using the sweetener of your choice.
3. Freezing the fruit before adding it to the blender can make this recipe even more slushie or 'sorbet-like'. You can use less ice to get a thicker or more fruity consistency if you choose to do this.

Make this into a boozy slushie.

The easiest way to do this is to simple add the alcohol and adjust the other ingredients as needed.
However, blending your ingredients into a liquid and freezing some or all of it into ice cubes is a way to get even a better 'slush'!

 

Ingredients needed to make a homemade slushy.

• Crushed ice- 2 cups, divided. That is about 16 average sized ice cubes. You can run the cubes in a blender to crush them to two cups. Also, feel free to adjust the amount of ice added as desired.
• Watermelon- 1 cup cubed.
• Kiwi- 1 cup peeled. That is about two averaged sized kiwis.
• Sweetener- equivalent to four tablespoons of sugar or as desired. Options include honey, stevia, or even monk fruit.
• Optional- strawberries as an ingredient add-in or sub-in, lime or lemon juice as needed for flavor, or even boozy option.

 

How to make a homemade fruit slushy.

 

• Place four glasses in the refrigerator or freeze to get a cold glass for your slushie.
• In a blender or slushie maker, (please refer to manufacturers instructions for details) add one cup of crushed ice to the watermelon cubes and half of the sweetener that you have chosen to use. Blend until you reach your desired consistency. Adjust the ingredients as needed.
• Transfer the mixture to a pitcher and place it the refrigerator while you work. Rinse or clean out the blender and dry it.
• Next, add the kiwi along with the remaining crushed ice and sweetener and blend again to consistency. Adjust ingredients as needed. Remove the glasses from the freezer or refrigerator and distribute the kiwi evenly between the glasses. Then use a tablespoon to drizzle or drop the watermelon layer of the kiwi before serving. Using a spoon will help keep the layers from mixing and thus, keep the layers pretty.
• Serve immediately.
