  • 2 cups cola soda chilled

Equipment

  • Freezer
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. Pour the chilled cola soda into a shallow dish or baking tray, spreading it out evenly.
  2. Place the dish in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 4 hours, until the soda is solid or just beginning to form a slush.
  3. Remove the frozen cola from the freezer and break it into smaller chunks with a fork, exposing more surface area for blending.
  4. Transfer the frozen chunks into a blender and pulse until the mixture begins to break apart.
  5. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and velvety, with a slushy, semi-frozen texture.
  6. Pour the Coke slushie into glasses, and serve immediately for the best icy texture.
This Coke slushie is more than just a cool drink; it’s a trip down memory lane with every frosty sip. It’s incredibly versatile — serve it at parties, or just enjoy a quiet moment in the sun. Sometimes, the simplest recipes are the most satisfying, especially when they bring back cherished memories.
