Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple juice thick
  • pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • To extract the juice, peel and chop the pineapple.
  • Add very little water and process the pineapple.
  • Strain the juice to remove the fibre.
  • Add salt and lemon juice to the juice and mix well.
  • Freeze the juice in a wide container like a loaf tin or a steel plate. Cover it with a lid or foil so that ice crystals don't form on top.
  • The juice usually freezes in 3-4 hours.
  • Using a fork, start scraping the top to get the tiny ice bits or slush.
  • Serve in a glass.
  • Can be sipped through a thick straw or enjoyed with a spoon. I personally prefer to use the spoon as sipping it gives a brain freeze.

Notes

  • If you need to add sugar, honey or maple syrup, 2tbsp should be sufficient or add according to your taste.
  • Replace the pineapple with a fruit of your choice. I've made watermelon, green melon, mango, strawberries and passionfruit slush with my kids.
  • If you don't want to spend time scraping the frozen liquid with a fork then break it up into pieces. Add to a food processor and process it to get a slush.
