Eat Well

Instead of the Ziploc bags, the mixture can be frozen in a 9×13 glass baking dish.  This is a great recipe for summer, when fresh fruits are less  expensive.  Mango is very rich in Vitamin C and Vitamin A.

 

Ingredients:

2 cups orange juice

1 cup pineapple juice

1 cup chopped fresh pineapple

1 cup chopped fresh mango

1 banana, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Chilled club soda

Lime, orange, or pineapple wedges (optional)

Ziploc gallon freezer bags

 

Directions:

In a blender, combine orange juice, pineapple juice, pineapple, mango, banana, and lime juice. Blend until smooth.  Pour mixture into 1 or 2 freezer bags. To prevent leakage, double bag each mixture.  Lay bags flat and freeze for at least 6 to 8 hours, until firm. Remove from freezer when ready to serve.  Let stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Using a spoon, scrape frozen fruit mixture to make a slush.  Fill small glasses half-full with slush.  Top with club soda.  Serve with a spoon and garnish with a fruit wedge, if desired.
