Chill out when the weather’s warm and treat yourself to this frozen drink that’s a blend of seasonal fresh raspberries and fresh lemon juice.

Ingredients

12 ounces raspberries

1 cup sugar substitute

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

5 cups ice cubes

Directions

In a food processor or blender, process the raspberries, sugar substitute, and lemon juice until the raspberries are puréed.
Add the ice cubes. Process until the mixture is mostly smooth and has a slushie-like consistency. (It’s okay if there are a few ice chunks. Don’t overmix.)
Divide the slushie into cups. Serve immediately.

Quick Tips

Tip: Add Color Swap: You can vary this recipe by using blueberries and lime juice, mangos and pineapple juice, or strawberries and orange juice instead of the raspberries and lemon juice.

Cooking Tip: If your blender is too small for the entire recipe, split the recipe into two batches, adding half the ingredients at a time.
