It sounded good but yikes. 34 grams of sugar? Oh my.

You can do this with almost any juice and frozen concentrate combination you like. I enjoy it with a cranberry blend juice, and pineapple/orange concentrate. You can also replace the "powdered drink mix" with flavored Jell-O that has already been dissolved in a cup of hot water. To ensure slushiness, open the freezer every half hour or so and stir it around. After the first 90 minutes, you'll be sure to have a slushy consistency no matter how long it's in the freezer. Good stuff!
