A Brace Friendly Recipe

 A cool drink for a hot summer day!


Strawberries and Cream Slush Drink Recipe



Ingredients:
2 1/2 Cups (about 1 pound) strawberries, fresh or frozen
1 Tablespoon lime juice
1 1/2 cups crushed ice
1 1/2 cups club soda
3 Tablespoons vanilla syrup
1/2 cup sugar or more, to taste
1 can whip cream

Directions:
Wash and drain strawberries.  Remove stems and slice.  Put lime juice in blender, and then add batches of strawberries, about a half-cup at a time, blending until liquefied.  Strain the strawberries through a fine sieve to remove most of the seeds and some pulp.  Place back in blender, and blend with the crushed ice.  Pour into a 2-liter pitcher and stir in club soda, vanilla syrup and sugar.  Serve in six tall glasses with a swish of whipped cream on top.
