Servings
4
Ingredients
  • 3 to 5 pulled mint leaves
  • 32 ounce water
  • 16 ounce sugar
  • 54 ounce crushed ice
  • 3 ounce grapefruit juice
  • 1 ounce lime juice
  • 2 ounce mint simple syrup
  • 1 bottle grapefruit shandy, preferably traveler grapefruit shandy
  • ruby red grapefruit wedge, to garnish
Directions
  1. Makes 32 ounces
  2. Combine mint leaves with two parts water and one part sugar.
  3. Bring to a boil and then let it cool to room temperature.
  4. Break down crushed ice as much as possible so that the carbonation of the shandy won’t dilute the slushie.
  5. Combine ice, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and mint simple syrup. Blend until smooth.
  6. While blending, add shandy to the mixture.
  7. Garnish with a ruby red grapefruit wedge.
