Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups frozen peach slices peeled and pitted, then frozen overnight
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon adjust to taste
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger fresh or ground
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup for sweetness, optional
  • 1 cup cold water or peach nectar to loosen the blend if needed

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring cups

Method
 

  1. Place the frozen peach slices into the blender, creating a colorful heap that freezes the fruit in perfect icy chunks.
  2. Add the ground cinnamon and ginger directly on top of the peaches, allowing their warm aroma to start infusing the mixture.
  3. Pour in the honey or maple syrup for sweetness, balancing the spices and enhancing the fruit flavors.
  4. Measure and add the cold water or peach nectar to help the blender process the mixture smoothly and to achieve the desired icy consistency.
  5. Secure the lid on the blender and blend everything on high speed for about 30-45 seconds, until the mixture is thick, smooth, and vividly colored.
  6. Stop the blender and check the texture; if it's too thick, add an extra splash of water or nectar, then pulse gently to combine.
  7. Pour the slushie into chilled glasses, revealing a frosty, vibrant drink with tiny icy crystals and a swirled spice aroma.
  8. Optional: Garnish with a cinnamon stick, a slice of fresh peach, or a sprig of mint for a beautiful presentation.
  9. Serve immediately with a straw or spoon, enjoying the cool, spicy refreshment that combines fruity sweetness with cozy warmth.

Notes

For a smoother texture, slightly thaw the peaches before blending if they are too frozen. Adjust spice levels according to your preference. You can also add a splash of lemon juice for extra brightness.
