🇺🇸 Bomb Pop Slushy Recipe (Layered Red, White & Blue)
Ingredients:
🔴 Red Layer (Cherry/Strawberry):
- 1 cup ice
- 1/2 cup cherry or strawberry juice (or sports drink like Fruit Punch Gatorade)
- 1 tbsp grenadine or a few fresh/frozen strawberries (optional for color/sweetness)
⚪ White Layer (Lemon/Lime):
- 1 cup ice
- 1/2 cup lemon-lime soda, lemonade, or white Gatorade
- Optional: 1–2 tsp simple syrup or honey for sweetness
🔵 Blue Layer (Blue Raspberry):
- 1 cup ice
- 1/2 cup blue sports drink (like Blue Gatorade or Blue Raspberry Kool-Aid)
Instructions:
- Blend Each Layer Separately
Blend each layer’s ingredients until slushy. Add more ice if needed to thicken. - Chill Between Layers (Important for clean separation)
After blending each slush, place it in the freezer while you prep the next. This helps layers hold better. - Assemble the Slushy
Carefully spoon or pour the blue layer into a clear glass first. Gently add the white layer, then the red layer on top. Use a spoon to slow the pour and keep layers defined. - Serve Immediately
Garnish with a mini Bomb Pop or a straw. Serve cold and enjoy!
🎉 Tips:
- Use crushed ice for a smoother blend.
- To keep layers from mixing: blend to a thick consistency and pour slowly.
- Adults: Add a splash of vodka or rum to each layer for a spiked version!
