Layered Strawberry Mango Slush
Sweet, fruity, and icy, this mocktail uses the best flavors of spring while adding the fun element of layering!
3 cups of frozen strawberries
3 cups ice, divided
1 cup water, divided
⅔ cup lime juice, divided
½ cup orange juice, divided
¼ cup simple syrup (see Tip), divided
3 cups frozen mango chunks
1. Place strawberries, 1 1/2 cups ice, 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 2 tablespoons of simple syrup in a blender. Puree until smooth. Transfer to a pitcher.
2. Rinse out the blender jar. Place mango and the remaining 1 1/2 cups ice, 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 2 tablespoons simple syrup in the blender. Puree until smooth.
3. Layer the two drinks in 6 glasses. Leave the layers distinct or partially stir together for a swirled design.
Tip: To make your own simple syrup: Bring 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar. Let cool for 30 minutes and then refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
