Not quite solid, not quite liquid, fruity and sparkly and incredibly refreshing – that’s a slushie! This cool treat originated in the USA and looks like coloured snow or an ice-cold glacier. Our blueberry slushie will transport your taste buds to the berriest snow flurry of all times. But the fruit balls – made from mango, kiwi and dragon fruit – are in no mood for a snowball fight. They prefer to land directly in your mouth.
Directions
To make the blueberry slushie: Freeze 550 g blueberries, set the remaining berries aside. Purée the frozen blueberries, agave syrup and freshly squeezed orange juice in a high-powered blender until smooth (add some water if necessary) and freeze again straight away.
To make the fruit balls: Cut the mango in half, remove the stone and peel off the skin. Halve the kiwis and dragon fruit. Cut off a few slices of the dragon fruit for decoration. Using a melon baller, scoop out small balls of the fruit flesh.
Spoon the frozen slushie mixture into a piping bag. Attach a star-shaped nozzle, pipe the mixture into chilled glasses and arrange the fruit on top. Decorate with the pomegranate seeds and slices of dragon fruit.
Let’s go get a slushie!
