We're here to show you a whole new way to enjoy fresh cut, spring rhubarb! This refreshing slushy drink is a great way to introduce kids (and adults) to the wonderful taste of rhubarb.
Rhubarb Slush
Ingredients
- 6 cups diced rhubarb
- 1 quart water
- 2 cups sugar
- 6 oz lemonade concentrate
- 6 oz orange juice concentrate
- 3 cups cold water
Preparation
- In a stock pot add diced rhubarb to 1 quart of water. Cover and cook over medium heat until rhubarb is softened.
- Mash the rhubarb with a potato masher.
- Strain the rhubarb juice and reserve. It is okay to get some of the pulp into the liquid.
- Add the sugar to the juice while it is hot and stir to dissolve the sugar.
- Add the lemonade and orange juice concentrate along with the remaining 3 cups of cold water to the sweetened rhubarb juice.
- Stir to combine.
- Pour into a container, cover and place into freezer to freeze.
- When ready, serve the frozen rhubarb mixture loosely parked in a glass with white soda. An ice cream scoop works great for this.
- For an alcoholic version, add a little vodka to your glass and follow the instructions listed above.
