This drink is my go-to when the heat is up and I want something fruity, cold, and fast. It’s thick like a slushy, packed with antioxidants, and tastes like summer in a glass. No added syrups, no complicated prep — just frozen berries, citrus, and a little something fizzy on top if you're feeling it.

Whether you're making it for the kids, using it as a mocktail base, or blending up a batch for girls’ night on the patio, this Frozen Berry Blitz always hits the spot.

Optional for adults:

• 1½ oz vodka, gin, or berry-flavored liqueur per serving

Sarah’s Tips

• Use whatever frozen berries you have — strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries… anything works.

• Want it smoother? Strain through a fine mesh sieve before serving.

• Freeze any leftovers in popsicle molds for the kids (or for yourself).
