CRANBERRY VODKA SLUSH



Cranberry Vodka Slush image

A quick, easy drink to make. This recipe makes quite a bit and it can be kept in the freezer for months, as long as it's in a tightly sealed container. I've made this for holidays, family get-togethers, baby showers (non-alcoholic for the mom-to-be of course), bridal showers/bachelorette parties and other events. * "50/50"...

Categories     Cocktails

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 oz box cherry jello
1 c boiling water
3 c cold water
2 c cranberry juice
12 oz frozen orange juice concentrate, slightly thawed
12 oz frozen lemonade, slightly thawed
2 c vodka
50/50 or squirt soda (citrus flavored sodas)

Steps:

  • 1. In a large container, dissolve the Jello in boiling water. Add the remaining ingredients, EXCEPT the soda; stir until well blended. Cover the container tightly, place in the freezer for at least 7 hours (overnight works best though) or until its completely "slushy."*
  • 2. When ready to serve, spoon the slush into a glass and add 50/50 or Squirt soda.
  • 3. * If you make non-alcoholic version, stir every few hours so it doesn't completely freeze solid (alcoholic version won't freeze solid with the vodka in it).
