This cool slush recipe makes a great frozen cocktail. It’s an oldie, but a goodie – popular in the late 80s and early 90s. This frozen slush recipe is nice, because it’s not overly sweet and is made with tea, which gives it a nice, solid base. This recipe serves 12 or so – perfect for a backyard barbecue.
