Cherry Cola and Bourbon Slushie
Frozen cherries, cola ice cubes, bourbon, and lime juice blend into a refreshing slushie for two. Freeze the cola ahead of time, then blend and top with whipped cream and a cherry—might as well go all out!
Equipment
- high-speed blender
- ice cube tray
Ingredients
- 2 oz Bourbon
- ⅓ cup frozen cherries
- 9 oz Cola Soda (any brand)
- lime (juice from one lime)
- whipped cream for garnish
- maraschino cherries for garnish
Instructions
- Pour 6 ounces (¾ cup) of cola into an ice cube tray, leaving a little room in each compartment for expansion. Freeze for at least 5 hours, or until solid. Overnight works well.
- Add the frozen cola cubes, frozen cherries, bourbon, lime juice, and the remaining 3 ounces of cola to a blender suitable for crushing ice. Blend until smooth and slushy.
- Divide between two glasses. Top with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry, add a lime wedge if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Dark rum can be substituted for Bourbon.
