Ordinary juice is just fine for everyday. But when hosting morning meals, our home economists suggest you serve something a little more special, like this pretty and refreshing beverage. Ingredients:
strawberry puree: |
1/2 cup frozen unsweetened sliced strawberries, thawed |
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons water |
citrus slush: |
3/4 cup sugar |
3/4 cup water |
3/4 cup lemon juice |
2/3 cup orange juice |
4-1/2 cups ice cubes |
Directions:
1. Place the strawberries, confectioners' sugar and water in a blender. Cover and process until blended; transfer to a small bowl. Cover and chill until serving.
2. In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature.
3. Just before serving, place the lemon juice, orange juice, ice cubes and sugar syrup in a blender. Cover and process until it reaches a slushy consistency. Divide strawberry puree among four chilled glasses. Top with citrus slush. Serve immediately. Yield: 5 servings.
