This only takes about 10 seconds- don’t over-blend or it will end up too liquified. Blend until a crush/slushie consistency is reached. the methodĪdd the strawberries, ice, and kombucha to an upright blender. This crush requires just four ingredients: Strawberries, ice cubes, kombucha, and gin, vodka, or white rum. Either way, it makes a great happy hour drink that’s a little fizzy, a little sweet, a little tangy, and very cooling. The alcohol is totally optional it also tastes great without. It’s a fond memory that was revived when I took my first sip of this healthy strawberry kombucha crush. On hot, humid summer days, my brother, my best friend Kristen, and I would run down to the Quickie convenience store at the end of our block and go to town on whatever flavours were on offer. Its flavour is reminiscent of the slushies that I would get from the corner store when I was a kid. The first of many warm weather recipes that I’ll be sharing with you over the next few months is this strawberry lemonade kombucha crush! The idea for this drink popped into my head the first time that I tasted the GT’s Strawberry Lemonade kombucha. Strawberry lemonade kombucha crush: the details So as you might imagine, I find myself coping with Ottawa’s sultry summer weather by coming up with all sorts of cold treats and drinks in the warm months. (My mom also tortured me with news that it’s 1 degree C in Edmonton today, which, if you read my last post, is where I’m going to be moving in August that would actually be heaven to me, LOL). I really do feel as though I have a physical aversion to heat. I live for fall and winter, and I love to be slightly chilly. If you’ve been visiting Up Beet Kitchen for awhile, you might know that I am not a fan of heat. Happy Wednesday! It’s suddenly hot here in Ottawa (30 degrees C). This boozy strawberry lemonade kombucha crush is a super cooling, fun, and healthy happy hour drink! Strawberry lemonade kombucha is blended with whole strawberries and ice, then topped off with gin or vodka, if desired.
