Prep Time:

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 ½ cups lime juice, freshly squeezed preferred
- 1 cup mint simple syrup (from recipe above)
- 3/4 cup white rum
- fresh mint leaves, for garnish
- lime wedges or slices, for garnish
Preparation Instructions
- Lightly bruise the mint leaves by squeezing them firmly in your hand. Heat the mint leaves, water, and sugar in a small saucepan on the stovetop over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes. Remove the mint leaves and discard. (For extra mint flavor, feel free to use more mint and allow it to sit longer to cool before discarding the leaves).
- In a medium mixing bowl or large pitcher, stir the mint simple syrup with the water, lime juice, and rum until evenly combined. Then pour into the GreenPan Frost mixing bowl and cover with the mixing bowl cover.
- Select the Spiked Slushie Mode and choose level 4. Churn until the Frost switches to Cool and beeps, or until your preferred texture is reached.
- Serve in a chilled glass, garnished with a few fresh mint leaves and a lime wedge or slice.
Tips
To make this spiked slushie even faster, use store-bought simple syrup instead of the homemade mint, and stir 2 to 3 finely chopped mint leaves into the glass right before enjoying.
