an apple slushie

We have a lot of wonderful farms here in Connecticut.  This is the time of year when everyone makes an obligatory trip to an apple and/or pumpkin farm.  I stopped at a farm this past weekend to grab some freshly picked apples and some locally made apple cider.

With the summer-like temperatures in Connecticut this past weekend, I wasn’t thinking of baking a hot apple pie!  Instead, I made an apple slushie from my farm fresh ingredients!

Why not get creative with slushies?   (Have you seen the red wine slushies?)

Hot temp.  Cold slushie.  What’s not to like?  And, the fact that the slushie was apple made it totally seasonal!  It was delicious and refreshing ~ sort of like a chilly applesauce!

I used a honeycrisp apple for my slushie since that was the variety of apple I purchased at the farm and I thought it had the perfect amount of sweetness.  A honeycrisp is a cross between a macoun and a honeygold.  Obviously, you can substitute any variety of apple you prefer.

If you give the recipe a try, be sure to adjust the spices to your own liking before adding the ice.

Thanks for stopping by!  Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
