7-11 Cherry Slurpee

7-11 Cherry Slurpee

2 cups cold club soda 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon cherry flavored unsweetened Kool-Aid mix 1/2 teaspoon cherry extract 2 1/2 cups crushed ice

Pour 1 cup of the club soda into a blender.Add the sugar, Kool-Aid mix, and cherry extract. Blend this until all of the sugar is dissolved.

Add the crushed ice and blend on high speed until the drink is a slushy, smooth consistency, with no remaining chunks of ice.

Add the remaining club soda and blend briefly until mixed. You may have to stop the blender and use a long spoon to stir up the contents.

If necessary, put the blender into your freezer for 1/2 hour. This will help thicken it up. After 1/2 hour remove blender from freezer and, again, blend briefly to mix.

Makes (1) 32 ounce drink or (2) 16 ounce drinks.
