Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch to create chewy, candy-like texture
  • 2 tbsp water for dissolving cornstarch

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Measure the crushed ice and place it into your blender.
  2. Mix the blue raspberry syrup with water and stir until fully combined, then pour it over the crushed ice.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with a little water until smooth and free of lumps.
  4. Bring the cornstarch mixture to a gentle simmer in the microwave or stove until it thickens slightly, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  5. Add the thickened cornstarch to the blender and pulse a few times to evenly distribute, giving the slushie a chewy, candy-like consistency.
  6. Blend on high for about 20-30 seconds until the mixture is uniform and starts to look slushy with a slightly thicker, chewy texture.
  7. Pour the slushie into glasses immediately, noting the vibrant blue color and icy, semi-opaque appearance.
  8. Serve immediately with a straw, enjoying the cold, chewy, and icy texture that makes each sip playful and nostalgic.
