- 2 cups crushed ice
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1 cup white wine (Chilean wine is recommended)
- 1/4 cup grenadine syrup
- 1/2 cup soda (Sprite or 7-Up)
- Fresh pineapple slices (for garnish)
- Maraschino cherries (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ice: Start by gathering your crushed ice. If you don’t have crushed ice on hand, you can easily make it by placing ice cubes in a blender and pulsing until you achieve a fine, slush-like consistency. You’ll need about 2 cups of crushed ice for this recipe.
2. Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the crushed ice, pineapple juice, white wine, and grenadine syrup. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and the ice is fully incorporated, creating a slushy texture.
Be sure to stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender to verify everything is well mixed.
3. Add the Soda: Once the mixture is smooth, carefully add the soda to the blender. This will give your slushie a fizzy kick and enhance the overall flavor. Pulse the blender a couple of times to mix in the soda without losing too much of the carbonation.
4. Serve and Garnish: Pour the slushie mixture into tall glasses. For an extra touch, garnish each glass with a fresh slice of pineapple and a maraschino cherry on top. This not only adds a pop of color but also enhances the tropical vibe of the drink.

Additionally, experimenting with different types of fruit juices can create unique flavor variations. Always blend the ingredients in small batches if you have a smaller blender, to verify consistency throughout the drink. Enjoy responsibly!
