How to Make African Fruit Slush

  1. In a medium saucepan, dissolve 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Let the syrup cool completely.
  2. Peel and chop 2 ripe bananas and 1 cup of fresh pineapple chunks. Add them to a large bowl.
  3. Add your choice of additional fruits (e.g., 1 pear, ½ cup strawberries, 1 kiwi, or a combination) to the bowl.
  4. Pour the cooled sugar syrup over the fruit. Add ½ cup of orange juice and ¼ cup of lime juice.
  5. Stir everything well to combine.
  6. Cover the bowl and freeze for at least 85 minutes, or until solid.
  7. Once frozen, use a fork or spoon to break up the slush into a smoother consistency. If it is too hard, let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
  8. Spoon the frozen fruit mixture into glasses.
  9. Top with your favorite bubbly beverage – 4-6 oz of Sprite, 7-Up, or ginger ale.
