This is the perfect cool, slushy, creamy drink to cool you down on a hot summer day. After all those years living in the desert – I can tell you, I have found all the best ways to chill when it’s way too hot to do anything.
We loved making a bunch of these to take out back to enjoy by the pool. It really was the only way to spend the day once we reached mid-summer. (when I say that I mean summer lasts from March-November in the desert)
We always had a good majority of the year when it was just flat out uncomfortable to be outside & this drink was always welcome!

Strawberry Slush Recipe
Here are some commonly asked questions
Can I use frozen strawberries?
Yes, absolutely, that will work just fine. You might want to reduce the ice a bit so it doesn’t get too thick. The frozen berries will act as the ice cubes and will change the consistency of the end result.
Can I use a whipped topping substitute?
We have not personally tried it, so I can’t say how that would turn out. I suppose you could use regular whipped cream, but it might not be as creamy. I have found that it tends to separate out in drinks & then I have tiny little fat pockets, for lack of a better description, floating in the drink instead of blending with it.
Can this slush be frozen?
I haven’t tried it yet. Not sure how that would thaw out, so I don’t recommend it. Try using all of it shortly after making.
How many can this serve?
These glasses are 16 ounces each and we had enough to fill at least 3 of them. So about 48 ounces total.

Can this recipe be doubled?
You can, and we do it often. Doubling the ingredients should fit in most blenders, but if you happen to have a smaller one, I would make this in batches.
HOW DO YOU MAKE Strawberry Pineapple Slush?
- Add pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, strawberries, grenadine, ice, and rum if using to the blender & pulse until it becomes a thick slush consistency.
- Pour into glasses & top generously with the whipped topping. Allow whip topping to melt into drink to give it a creamy consistency with the slush.
- Top with additional strawberries or pineapple garnish if desired.
What is the best way to store leftover slush?
This drink is best when served immediately as the slush factor will disapate as it melts. It also won’t be as good as the whipped topping melts into the drink. But you can pop it in the refrigerator for a short time after blending to keep it cool.
