Healthy Lemon Slushies


Note: Next Humor story is Aug 1st! July story posted below.

My kids love slushies in the summer, but I don't want them to have that much sugar all the time, so I came up with this substitute:

1 pkg. crystal light
water

Make the crystal light lemonade according to directions. Pour in an ice cube tray and freeze. To make a slushy, place four or five lemon ice cubes in the blender and blend until crushed. You may add a tablespoon or two of water if this helps the blender do a better job of ice crushing. Or add a few strawberries or rasberries. Enjoy!

Put all in blender and blend until smooth and frothy. Enjoy!
