Recipe to prepare a Lime Slushy 2017/07/05

On warm days and in get-togethers between friends and relatives, what better thing to prepare but a delicious Lime slushy,

Here is one of the most tried recipes

Ingredients

• 1 liter of water
• 500 ml of lime juice
• Sugar

For one slushy

100 grams - lightly sweet for adults

200 grams - optimal sweetness, for everyone

300 grams - sweet to children taste

Personally I use 100 grams of sugar because I offer it to adults, this way the lime taste is more dominant, but if i know there will be children I need to add at least 200 to 300 grams to obtain the taste of lime water ice cream

We warm the water, it’s not necessary to boil it, just the necessary to be able to dissolve the sugar

Aside, we remove the peel of the lime, cut it in four parts, remove as many seeds possible

We blend it and strain it to separate the pulp from the juice

For this variety of limes we need about 4 or 5, doing this procedure to obtain the juice

Here our 500 ml of juice

Now we add the juice to the sugary water

Put it in the freezer; as shown I have used a stainless steel container for the whole process, it’s indispensable for the freezing process

Check the slushy and stir it every 20 minutes with a wooden spoon, you can see how the desired consistency is achieved in 6 hours

Delight your guests with a homemade slushy, decorate with mint leaves, cherries (Optional)
