get slushed
At our party last weekend we served my mom and Lynne's rum slush recipe, which was such a huge hit that I spent most of my evening in the kitchen, ice cream scoop in hand, dishing it out.
1 can frozen orange juice
1 can frozen pink lemonade
1 can (1.36L/46oz) pineapple juice
1/2 of that pineapple juice can of water
Mix this all up and add a 750ml bottle (26er) of rum. Freeze overnight.
To serve, fill a glass halfway and top it up with ginger ale (we used Sprite). You can make it stronger or weaker by changing the ratio here, but we found that half and half is pretty much perfect.

This is so awesome! My friend Sandi's parents used to make something like this when we were in high school and we always snuck it out of the freezer. I've been looking for the recipe ever since! I think theirs might've been made with vodka and they called it German Slush, but I'm going to give this recipe a try.
Looking forward to meeting you at SAFF!
