List of Ingredients
2 packages frozen strawberries -- (10 oz)
2 cans frozen pink lemonade concentrated -- (6 oz)
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups ice cubes
1 liter club soda -- chilled
1 can whipped cream
fresh strawberries -- maraschino
-- cherries, pineapple
-- and orange slices
-- for garnish
Recipe
Partially thaw the strawberries and lemonade. Combine the strawberries,
lemonade, water and ice cubes in a blender and blend until smooth. Freeze
overnight. About 2 hours before the party, remove mixture from freezer and
let stand at room temperature until it's slushy. (Time Saver Tip: At
Sugarplums, we've made this in our gelato machine and it works fine.) Add
club soda, blend and serve. Spray a little whipped cream as a garnish,
place a cherry on top or set a piece of colorful fruit on the side of the
cup, and serve.
Here's a novel way to serve a kid's drink
Take a clear plastic glass (a study one is preferable). Cut up
an orange into slices, about 1/4 inch thick. Grab a jar of marachino
cherries or another colorful fruit. Set the glass in front of you and drop
a cherry into the glass, pour in a small amount of 7-up or sparkling water,
carefully position a slice of orange on top so that it forms a "seal," then
pour the slush on top of the orange slice. It's a layered drink that the
kids can enjoy in parts.
