My mom serves these at holiday gatherings, usually when we get together to wrap gifts before Christmas. That’s probably why we all get along so well during those special times, and you can always tell which gifts were wrapped later in the evening.
I made up a batch for Monkey’s party, and there wasn’t a drop left once everyone had departed. They are equally perfect for a sweltering summer day and a chilly winter evening.
A word of caution though – you really can’t tell there’s alcohol in here. Go easy!
Amaretto Slush
1 large can Dole pineapple juice
2 cans frozen Minute Maid pink lemonade
1/3 cup lemon juice
3 cups Disaronno Amaretto
1 2-liter bottle clear soda (Sprite, Ginger Ale)
Mix pineapple juice, pink lemonade, lemon juice and Amaretto in a large pitcher. Pour into a container suitable for freezing. Cover well. Freeze for 24 hours. Scoop slush into a cup, pour soda over the top and enjoy!
*You can substitute 1 tbsp almond extract if you’d like to keep these alcohol free.
I’ve been waiting for this since you said you were making them! I can’t wait to try them. Now we just need to get a hot tub to drink them in.
Oh, don’t even talk about a hot tub! It’s scorching here right now. I’ll go outside and sit in the baby pool with one though!
Looks YUMMY! Thank you for the non-alcoholic option:)
Nice clean look for the blog!
Thanks! I can’t wait to one day be self-hosted and all grown up. 😉
When your 17 days is up, make a big pitcher of this stuff and treat yourself!
Yum! This is gonna be so good when I make it next weekend! Thanks Julie!
Enjoy! Remember, they sneak up on you. No drunk blogging.
Woo hoo, I can’t wait to mix up a batch of this! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I hope you like them.
Why would you want to keep it alcohol free?
In case there are any preggernauts out there who need an adult slushie!
Since I grew out of amaretto sours, I’ve been looking for a use for the bottles of amaretto people keep giving me… OMFN
They were very yummy!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to try them!!!
