Pink Sherbert Slushy

This is the perfect summer treat: colorful, cold, and sweet with little sourness. This super easy slushy, has only three ingredients: pink sherbert, instant pink lemonade, and ice cubes. Just pop this components into your food blender and you'll have a summer snack or dessert that children and adults alike will love!

Combine the lemonade, sherbert, and ice cubes in your food blender. Turn the blender on for about 30 seconds to a minute, or until the slushy is lump-free and well mixed. You may have to stop the blender once or twice and give the ingredients a stir yourself.
 
 Serve immediately for best tasting results.

Fruity Smoothie Summer Drink

What could be better than a cold and refreshing fruit drink on a hot summer day? This peach and strawberry drink is creamy and sweet, the strawberries giving it the perfect hint of tartness. Just toss the ingredients into a mixer and you have your drink waiting for you!
I've only made this recipe with fresh fruit, but I'm sure you could use frozen fruit if that's all that you have on hand.
 
Cube the peaches and half the strawberries; drop them into your food blender. (I used a Vita-Mix). Add the sugar, milk, and ice cubes. Turn on the blender for 30 seconds to a minute, or until everything is smoothly ground and mixed together.
 
Pour into cups and serve immediately.
