Making slush drinks like a Caribbean Slush, Raspberry Lemonade Slushie, or even a Tropical Slush is so easy. This Poolside Slush is even simpler than those slushie drinks I have shared with you in the past. This slushie has a bit of color from the blue Kool-Aid and the optional few drops of blue food coloring.

I am looking forward to cooling down with drinks by the pool this summer. I am sure many of you are as well. Having fun drinks that the kiddos enjoy is always a must for us. Making this Poolside Slush with fresh frozen pineapple is one of my kids favorite summer drinks.

How to Make Poolside Slush

First, you will need to start by making your Kool-Aid according to package directions. My favorite flavor to use is Berry Blue or Blue Raspberry Lemonade.

Add the frozen pineapple, ice, and Kool-Aid to a strong blender. I use my Vitamix and it is strong enough to make a great slush. I give it a few pulses making sure that the pineapple is blended well. If you should like your slush much bluer, add about 5 drops of blue food coloring. Then enjoy!

  1. I love a good slushie, especially when it’s hot. Thanks for sharing on MM. Pinned and will be featuring this.

    1. I would think so. The recipe does call for FROZEN pineapple. I think she is suggesting that you use a fresh pineapple because it might taste better when freshly prepared, instead of already frozen sitting in the frozen section of a grocery store for God knows how long.
