Rhubarb-Slush
A Great Fruity Icy Drink to Sip

Rhubarb-slush is a fantastic wonderful icy thick drink on a hot day. Rhubarb-raspberry is a great flavor. Tart and sweet at the same time. You can make it however you like and it won't be wrong. It's all about your preference.

You can increase the fruit, or take away the sugar. You can substitute the fruit obviously instead of the one that comes recommended. Sour or sweet, adjust the ingredients accordingly. You can't "hurt" the outcome and you can adjust until you get it just right.

You may discover a different kind of soda to add instead of the one suggested. It will be just as good as any other choice.

Some slush recipes contain alcohol, some do not. Again, that is a personal preference.

All you really have to do is freeze it.

Enjoy!
