Strawberry-Mango Slush

After many days of rain, we’re finally getting some sunshine! Which also means it will be hot and humid again. And that kind of weather calls for something to drink that’s nice and cool, like this Strawberry-Mango Slush. It’s a great summer beverage made with two of my favorite fruits. I really like mango–it’s so good for you and so tasty, too! And it tastes really good blended with strawberries. You can whip this up in your blender in no time when you’re wanting to drink something to help you keep cool!

STRAWBERRY-MANGO SLUSH by NancyC Makes about 24 ounces, or two 12-ounce servings

1/2 cup seltzer water or sparkling mineral water

1 1/2 to 2 cups crushed ice

1 1/4 cups sliced fresh strawberries

1 cup peeled and chopped mango

2 Tablespoons lime juice

1 to 2 Tablespoons honey

Combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender; cover and process until everything is well blended. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately.

A slush like this really tastes great when the weather is hot. What kind of cool refreshments have you been making this summer?

Both Mangoes and strawberries are in season and I remember watching a cooking show that said that items that are in season together most often pair well together. So there you have it! Beautiful summer drink. Pinned!

This looks easy and tasty! My favorite summertime drink is honestly water, but followed by watermelon smoothies. 🙂 Thanks for bringing it to FF! Hope you have a fabulous weekend, and survive in all that humidity.

This looks like the perfect slushy to me, Nancy! I love anything icy, and strawberries and mangoes are some of my favorite fruits. I’ve never tried them mixed together so will have to make this soon! Thanks for sharing your recipe.
