It’s Thirsty Thursday! You bring the Candy!

 

That means invite some friends over and have some fun while mixing up unique drinks from the comfort of your own home! With this easy step by step recipe, we will teach you how to make a candy inspired drink using candies that you know and love! 

Summer isn’t over yet! So, let’s start with the Beach Bourbon Slush!

*Serves 6 to 8 people, depending on who is drinking ( you know who you are)*
Time: Less than an hour

Ingredients

2 cups of unsweetened brewed black tea
5 cups of water 
2 cups (or more, if your feeling up for it) of Jack Daniel’s Black Label 
¼ Cup of Sugar 
One 12 ounce can frozen lemonade. Please make sure it is concentrates or thawed. 
One 6 ounce can frozen strawberry juice concentrate, we recommend using Welch’s Frozen: Strawberry Breeze Juice 
One 8 oz can of chilled ginger ale 

Liquor is optional, but recommended.  

Preparation 

1. Combine the tea, water, Jack Daniel’s, sugar, and the two juice concentrates in a 9x13-inch metal baking pan. Place in the freezer. About every 45 minutes, stir the blend with a fork. Continue this for a couple of hours, until the mixture has the consistency of a granita: icy, slushy, and granular.
2. To serve, use an ice-cream scoop or large heavy spoon and fill a glass two-thirds full with the frozen tea. Top with a bit of ginger ale, but don’t stir. Let the ginger ale coagulate with the frozen tea.
 3. Enjoy.
If you have a sweet tooth, feel free to add Gummie Worms and/or AirHeads. In the photo shown below, we used sour Gummie Worms and  AirHeads Xtremes Sour. You may also add an additional travel size bottle of Jack Daniels for “presentational” purposes.
