PICKLE SLUSH RECIPE

I saw pickle slushes when we picked up a meal at Sonic Drive-In awhile back and almost got one. I've been regretting that decision of not buying one for awhile being intrigued by the idea of that flavoring and decided to mix up a diy variety at home. Been snacking on pickles this summer so when I finished off a jar of McClure's Garlic Dill decided to use the left over juice in it to make some slushes.

So here's how I did it:

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 Jar of Pickles (Preferably McClure's Garlic & Dill Pickles)
• 1/2 Shot of Torani lemon syrup 
•  1/2 Shot of Torani lime syrup
• 4 oz of Sprite Soda 
• Crushed Ice 

DIRECTIONS:

• Fill blender with ice 
•  Add 1/2 jar of pickle juice 
•  Add lemon and lime syrup 
•  Pour in the soda
•  Blend until the mixture is slushy

Now a lot of you may be apprehensive about drinking a pickle slush but have to say it really did make for a tasty treat. The garlic complimented the lemon-lime flavor making for an interesting flavor combination. If you like Bloody Mary's you'll appreciate this frozen drink. 

I'm absolutely going to be using this Pickle Slush recipe again. In fact, next time I make up a batch maybe will add a shot of Vodka to the ingredients. Something out of the ordinary to drink while enjoying a sci-fi movie to make you feel you've been transported to another time or place. Do you think they served these at the Mos Eisley cantina on Tatooine? Whether you got that Star Wars reference or not give a Pickle Slush a try!
