Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bottle (20 oz) Gatorade preferably chilled
  • 1-2 cups ice cubes as needed for desired slushiness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cup

Method
 

  1. Pour the Gatorade into the blender until it’s about halfway full.
  2. Add 1 to 2 cups of ice cubes to the blender to achieve a slushy texture.
  3. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 20-30 seconds, until the mixture is icy, smooth, and evenly textured.
  4. Check the consistency; if it’s too thin, add more ice and blend again until thick and granular.
  5. Pour the frozen Gatorade slushie into chilled glasses, watching the colorful, icy texture settle into a vibrant, granular mass.
  6. Enjoy immediately with a straw or spoon, marveling at the icy crunch and chilled citrus flavor.

Notes

For extra flavor variation, try mixing different Gatorade flavors or adding a splash of lemon juice before blending. For a finer texture, pulse the mixture briefly after blending. Remember, the key is a balance between enough ice to create a slush and not so much that the drink becomes purely frozen solid.
