List of Ingredients
2 cups cold club soda
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon cherry-flavored unsweetened Kool-Aid mix
1/2 teaspoon cherry extract (can omit if not available; the drink will just a bit less intense. I've also been told you can use the whole packet of Kool-Aid mix, though I haven't tried that!)
2-1/2 cups crushed ice
Recipe
Pour 1 cup of the club soda into a blender. Add sugar, Kool-Aid mix and cherry extract. Blend this until all the sugar is dissolved. Add the curshed ice and blend on high speed until the drink is slushy with no chunks of ice remaining. Add the rest of the club soda and blend till mixed. You may need to stop and use a long spoon to stir the blender contents by this point. If you want the drink to thicken up, put the blender into your freezer for about 1/2 hour, then blend it briefly to re-mix the contents.
Makes 32 oz.
