Island Getaway Slushy

It is the dead of winter here in Virginia. Last week we had a major snowfall that still has people left without power. I know not everyone is thinking of eating something cold right now, but my daydreaming of the tropics led me to create this tropical fruit treat!

Here is what you will need to make this delightful treat:

1/2 Cup of Frozen Passionfruit, small cubes

1 Cup of Frozen Pineapple, chunks

7 Sliced Frozen Peaches

2 Tablespoons of Raw Agave

1/2 Cup of Coconut Water, unsweetened

Combine all your ingredients in a high speed blender. I use a Vitamix and find this works beautifully to create a "slushy". The trick is to start low, starting and stopping and using a spoon or spatula to combine ingredients. To create the slushy texture, go slow, be careful not to over blend, just pulse and stir, pulse and stir until you get the desired texture!

It really is that simple! Then sit back and dream of being on an island, even if there is 14 feet of snow outside!
