Notes

For a less sweet slushie, reduce sugar to 1/3 cup. Swap club soda with lemon-lime soda for extra fizz and sweetness. Store leftovers in the freezer, but re-blend before serving as it will freeze solid. Don't overfill the blender; work in batches if needed. Serve immediately in tall glasses with a straw. Adjust ice amount based on your blender's power—more ice for thicker slush.
