Blueberry Green Tea Slushie Recipes

BLUEBERRY CREAM SLUSHY

Steps:

• Place the blueberries, strawberries, juice, yogurt and sugar into the container of a blender. Process until smooth. Add the ice cubes, and process until small enough to fit through a straw, but large enough to crunch on. Pour into glasses, and drink through straws.

GREEN TEA AND BERRY SLUSHIE

Steps:

• *NOTE: I used three tea bags of Traditional Medicinals brand Organic Green Tea with Ginger. The original recipe specified six tea bags and three full tablespoons of honey. I toned it down a little.
• Brew the tea and let steep for 10 minutes; covered. Remove tea bags, allow tea to cool down then refrigerate.
• Place all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.

STRAWBERRY SLUSHIE

Steps:

• Place strawberries, maple and a squeeze of citrus in a blender. Blend until smooth. If need be, add a splash of water to the bender to get it going. Taste, adding more maple or citrus to taste if you like. You want a nice balance between sweet and tart. The sweeter and riper the strawberries are the less maple or honey you will need.
• Add the ice cubes a little at a time, blending until incorporated, adding more ice to the blender (if you like) to get it really thick and icy. If you've got a good blender, let it go just a bit it longer, it will take on a slightly creamy look. It should be thick enough to mound on a spoon, and not be runny.
• Spoon into one large glass or two smaller glasses. Serve with a spoon. ????
