Slushy

Pineapple Strawberry Mint Slush (serves 2)
1/4 cup pineapple*
strawberries* (about 4-5)
a handful of fresh mint, stems removed
8 ice cubes
2 packets splenda (omit if the fruit is extra sweet)
*Frozen fruit may be substituted for fresh fruit.
Blend ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
NOTES:
Add more ice for a more slushier drink. OR Omit the ice and freeze the blended concoction in mold for ice pops on a hot summer day! OR Omit the ice and freeze blended concoction in a dish and make yourself a granita for dessert by scraping the liquid when it is half frozen with a fork, leave scrapings in the dish and refreeze, scrape again when it is fully frozen and scoop the ice shavings into a cosmopolitan glass to serve.
This is me experimenting and making the granita that I mentioned in the notes section above. We'll see if it turns out!
Granita in the making...
Here is the final glass of granita... It turned out delish!
