Mom's Slush

I surprised the family with mom's slush for our meal on Easter Sunday. We hadn't had it since Audrey got married 5 1/2 years ago. It was refreshing and so yummy! Here's the recipe.

Ingredients: 3 oranges, 3 lemons, 3 bananas, 1 quart pineapple juice, 3 cups water, 1 cup sugar, 7-up, strawberries (optional)

Directions: Combine water and sugar and bring to a boil. Squeeze oranges and lemons into a large bowl. Mash bananas and add to fruit juice. Add pineapple juice and water/sugar mixture and stir. Place fruit mixture in freezer and let freeze several hours. Just before serving, scoop fruit mixture out with ice cream scoop into cup. Pour 7-up over top. Add a strawberry if desired.

note: I use a hand-held juicer (the yellow handled utensil in the picture) that cost me a couple of dollars. It works great!

Mom fixed slush for mine, Kelsey's and Audrey's wedding.

Who else had mom's slush for their wedding?
