Citrus Summer Slush

 This is a nice refreshing drink to have on a hot day. Easy to make and great to have on hand for a drink out on the deck. The alcohol keeps the liquid from freezing solid, so it has a slushy consistency. I make my slush in a 4 litre ice cream pail and it keeps well for up to 3 months. If you don't like gin just double up on the vodka. 

Ingredients:

7 Cups water
1 Cup sugar
1 can frozen grapefruit juice
1 can frozen lemonade
1 can frozen orange juice
12 oz or 375 mls vodka
12 oz or 375 mls gin

Directions:

Bring water and sugar to a boil until the sugar has dissolved completely. Remove from heat and add all the frozen juices and stir until they have completely melted. Pour mixture into a 4 litre ice cream pail or suitable container, add the gin and vodka, stir. Cover and freeze. Can be frozen for up up three months.
To serve, fill a glass half full with slush mixture and add 7-up.
