Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups frozen cherries (or fresh cherries, pitted)
- 1 cup cola (regular or diet)
- 1/2 cup white rum
- 1 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker consistency)
- Fresh cherries and lime wedges (for garnish)
Instructions
- Blend the Cherries: In a blender, combine the frozen cherries, cola, white rum, and lime juice. Blend until smooth. If you prefer a thicker slushie, add a handful of ice cubes and blend again until desired consistency is reached.
- Taste and Adjust: Give your slushie a taste! If you want it sweeter, you can add a bit more cola or a splash of simple syrup.
- Serve: Pour the slushie into chilled glasses.
- Garnish: Garnish with fresh cherries and a lime wedge on the rim of each glass for a pop of color and extra flair. π
- Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Cherry Rum and Coke Slushie on a hot day!
Notes
- Alcohol-Free Version: For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the rum and add more cola or cherry soda for a delicious mocktail.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to mix in other fruits like strawberries or raspberries for a unique twist.
- Make It Ahead: You can prepare the cherry mixture ahead of time and store it in the freezer. Just blend with cola and rum when youβre ready to serve!
