Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups ripe peaches pitted and sliced, preferably frozen overnight
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice for bright citrus flavor
  • 2 cups ice cubes crushed or whole for blending
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or sugar optional, for sweetness

Equipment

  • Freezer
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. Place the frozen peach slices, orange juice, ice cubes, and sweetener into your blender.
  2. Start blending on low speed, gradually increasing to high, until the mixture is smooth and frosty with no visible chunks of fruit or ice, about 30-45 seconds.
  3. Check the consistency—if it’s too thick, add a splash more orange juice; if too runny, add a few more ice cubes and blend again briefly.
  4. Pour the slushie into chilled glasses, watching it maintain its thick, icy texture with a bright orange hue.
  5. Garnish with a fresh peach slice or a sprig of mint if desired for extra visual appeal.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw, and enjoy the burst of refreshing summer flavor!

Notes

For best results, use perfectly ripe peaches and freeze them overnight for a colder, more luxurious slushie. Adjust sweetness to taste, and feel free to add a splash of lemon juice for extra brightness.
