    Default Strawberry slush

    I made strawberry slush today, and it was yummy, but it wasn't sweet enough; I just blended some strawberries with some ice cubes and added sugar! What is my drink missing?

    I love the strawberry slush drinks that are sold at Beard Papa's! I wish I knew how they're made!

    Needs more strawberries, of course!
    Maybe add bananas? XD

    Try adding a bit of lime?

    Y'know what I haven't had in years? A Cokeshake. Nothing complicated, it's just Coca-Cola in a glass, with vanilla ice cream added. It'll probably turn out to taste horrible, but I seem to remember it fondly as a kid.

    If you are like me, you will find that cranberry juice fills in the gaps.

    maybe you went too far in the sweetness and you should try going backwards. What's it like without extra sugar?

    Trying adding banana flavor. I had a banana strawberry smoothie yesterday with Huxley and it was delicious. <3

    Kiwi complements strawberry nicely.

    Maybe I should add juice and more sugar. :kauberry:

    I urge anyone who sees a Beard Papa's to go to it and purchase a strawberry smoothie; I think that's what the strawberry drink is called. It doesn't have a creamy texture, though; it's slushy. It's the best strawberry drink I've ever tasted!

    There are cups displayed in the window of Beard Papa's at Victoria Gardens - advertising the smoothie flavors that are available - and the strawberry cup has pink paper strawberries attached to it. I wanted to steal it, but I didn't see a way to get behind the store counter without getting in trouble!

    Tell me how the Beard Papa's strawberry drink is made, if you buy one!

    I tasted my slush before I added sugar - it was less sweet!

    You have earned a gold star in my book.
    Though, I would make more strawberry smoothies/slushes if I didn't eat all of the strawberries beforehand. >_>

    Thanks to Sagensyg for the sig!

    Unless strawberries are coated in chocolate or something, I can't eat them. If I eat plain strawberries, I look like Cinnamoroll:

    Did you try freezing the strawberries? That way, you don't need to add as much ice and still get the slush texture and more of the strawberry taste.
