I had to share this because it's so good!
I have a weakness for frozen, slushy type drinks. For instance, Taco Bell's pina colada freeze was always a favorite of mine. But I don't need all the sugar and calories so it's rare I'll have one.
So, I have done some experimenting!
I took Ice (that's the brand name) coconut pineapple sparkling Water and froze it. (this rids the carbonation). Then, I crushed it up in a blender. Next, I poured in some more of the coconut pineapple sparkling water and blended it together (the blender killed the carbonation again). This made it the slushy consistency.
I swear, it is just as good as the Taco Bell freeze. Maybe even better but ZERO calories.
I figure if I add a little rum, it would make a really good low calorie pina colada too!
I think this worked with this particular brand because it has so much flavor. I'm going to try it with other flavors, too.
(again, this is carbonated so be careful. I always get the carbonation out before drinking it)
