This Frozen Berry Pink Salt Slushie is a refreshing treat that combines the natural sweetness of mixed frozen berries with a zesty hint of lime. It’s perfect for cooling down on a hot summer day and is easy to make in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups mixed frozen berries (strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
- 1 cup coconut water (or regular water)
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (adjust for sweetness)
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon fine pink Himalayan salt
- 1/2 cup ice cubes (optional, for a slushier texture)
- Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
- Lime wedges (for garnish)
Instructions
- In your blender, combine 2 cups of mixed frozen berries with 1 cup of coconut water. Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and the berries are fully incorporated. Look for a vibrant color and a thick consistency.
- Add 1 tablespoon of honey or agave syrup to the berry mixture. Blend for an additional 10 seconds. Taste the slushie at this point; if you prefer it sweeter, add more sweetener, blending again for a few seconds.
- Pour in 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice and 1/4 teaspoon of fine pink Himalayan salt. Blend for another 10 seconds until everything is well-mixed. The salt will enhance the berry flavors, so don’t skip this step!
- If you desire a slushier texture, add 1/2 cup of ice cubes to the blender. Blend again for about 20 seconds until the ice is crushed and the slushie reaches your preferred consistency. You want it to be thick but pourable!
- Once blended, stop the blender and check the consistency. If it’s too thick, add a little more coconut water. If it’s too thin, add more ice and blend again for 10 seconds. Avoid the common mistake of making it too watery by adding too much liquid at once!
- Pour the slushie into chilled glasses for an extra refreshing experience. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a lime wedge for a beautiful presentation.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Frozen Berry Pink Salt Slushie while it’s icy cold! The texture is best within the first few minutes after blending.

Keywords: For the best texture, use berries that are frozen individually rather than in clumps. Don’t skip the pink Himalayan salt as it enhances the sweetness of the berries. Consider investing in a high-speed blender for a creamy consistency.
