Welcome to HowToCookThat I'm Ann Reardon and today we are making a fun, delicious fresh
Emoji Rainbow Fruit Slushie.
"Ok I think we'll go for the orange first.
And then we need to cut these up."
Just slice it in half and squeeze out the juice, and then you want to place that juice
in the freezer to chill while we make our other juices.
"And now I think we'll go for the strawberry and we want to hull those, take off the green
bit"
And after you've done that wash them and then put them into a blender and then we just want
to blitz them up to make nice, yummy fresh strawberry juice.
"Ok now I think we'll go for a yellowy layer so for that we will use a banana... hmm already
peeled.
So we just need to chop it"
Place it in the blender, now that will go brown if we don't add the juice of a lemon.
"So let's grab one of those."
Then slice it in half, juice it and pour that juice in with the bananas and then just turn
that on to blend and blend it up until it's smooth.
"What shall we do our next layer with?
How about one of my favourites some yummy fresh grapes?"
Wash the grapes and put them into a juicer and collect all that fresh grape juice.
If you don't have a juicer you could buy grape juice from the store instead but I kind of
love how this is all fresh fruit.
"And for our next layer lets use some pineapple, wow that's a bit heavy."
Slice a thin layer of the green off the pineapple.
Then cut it into quarters.
Push them into the juicer and it will filter out all those little bits that we didn't cut
off.
Again you can buy pipeapple juice from the store if you don't have a juicer.
"How fun is it getting all our ingredients straight fresh from the market.
Ok for this layer lets use a pear.
Awesome."
Wash it, chop it up and place it in a juicer and push it down ... and collect the fresh
pear juice.
"And this next one we are going to use something that is really yummy, we are going to use
some watermelon.
This is one of my favourite fruits ... make sure you leave a comment below with the emoji
of your favourite fruit.
And then we need to slice this to take the rind off it."
And cut it into chunks.
Place those chunks into a blender and blitz that to make watermelon juice.
Now to turn all these juices into slushie.
Pour the cold grape juice into an icecream maker and churn that for a few minutes until
it is soft and slushie.
The colder your juice is the quicker this will happen.
That's why I said to put the juices into the freezer while we were waiting.
Add some the bottom of the glass and shake it to level it off.
Then repeat that with the strawberry juice, now while this next one is churning store
the glasses in the freezer so the first layer doesn't melt.
I found it easiest with the bottom layers to use a piping bag to get it all the way
down to the bottom without getting it smeared all up the sides of the top of the glass.
The watermelon and strawberry juice are very similar in colour but they taste so different
that it's good having them both there.
Churn the orange and add that to the top.
And then follow that up with the pineapple, I could of been a bit more generous with the
orange layer there but never mind.
Add the layer of banana and lemon juice mixed together, you can do this with less fruits
if you want or you could do it with all one fruit.
Sometimes we churn one fruit slushie, add generous spoonfuls to a glasses and top it
with lemonade and that's always yummy too.
Then add the pear on top, I've added a little green food colouring to it so it wasn't so
pale.
And there you have a rainbow fruit slushie with grapes, strawberries, watermelon, orange,
pineapple, banana and lemon and pear on top.
And it tastes so fresh.
Hmm, I just got the watermelon, let's move it up a bit.
Pineapple and definitely pear, so it depends where your straw is as to what flavour you
get.
You can taste them all in there, just gorgeous, you have to try this.
