Quick Tip: Inexpensive Homemade Slushies

I don’t know about you, but this time of year, we are going through otter pops right and left. This is another little snack to help cool you off. Canned soda is so inexpensive at the store, that this snack could be shared with most the kids on your street.

It’s also fun to do with your kids. Just stick your favorite soda in a plastic cup, top with tin foil and freeze for a couple of hours starting in the morning sometime, and by the time lunch rolls around, you’ll have a slushie that was cheap and easy. Try putting icecream at the bottom too.

Mmm…homemade slushies are my favorite, especially Coke slushies.

    My boys are gonna be all over this. I just bought A&W Otter Pops in the dollar section at Target, but this will be even better.

    Do these freeze solid? Or will they always remain slushy? Thanks!

      If you leave it in your freezer for too long, then it will get solid. You can only leave it in for 2 hours at the most.

      Thanks for asking!
