Could anything really scream "SUMMER!" more than a slushie? Many of us have fond memories of all the neighborhood kids rounding themselves up and marching right on over to the local convenience store to get a tasty iced drink to cool off. You either got blue raspberry or cherry, or went wild and mixed the two for the ultimate flavor bomb of summer.
I think we can all agree that, as iconic as slushies are, they could also be a big bummer. Think about all the ice that's leftover after you quickly slurp it back. Eep—I hate thinking about it!
That's why the key was to let your slushie melt a little bit, so you could really enjoy all the sweetness slushies have to offer.
