Blueberry Slushy

How to make a homemade Slushy with fresh blueberries and orange juice! A fast, healthy, refreshing treat, perfect for summer! 

Cooling and refreshing, this healthy, sugar-free, two-ingredient blueberry slushy is fast and easy to make. Such a delicious healthy treat during the hot months of summer.

Blueberries are in season for a few short weeks, during the heat of summer in our area. Seek out flavorful low bush varieties at your local farmers’ markets – you’ll recognize them by their smaller size. They pack a punch of flavor and are more closely related to wild blueberries than conventional high bush varieties that you’ll find at the grocery stores.

How to make a slushie

Simply blend up fresh blueberries with a splash of citrus and ice, (fresh-squeezed orange, or lemon).

Or use frozen blueberries with orange juice.

Either way you’ll love it!

This can be made with any fresh or frozen berry and really any fresh fruit juice…. so feel free to experiment and play around.

Hope you enjoy!
