How to Make Cranberry Orange Juice Slushee

  4. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
  5. Stir in 1 cup orange juice and 2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice.
  6. Pour the mixture into your desired glasses or freezer-safe containers. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until slushy.
  7. Garnish with fresh orange slices before serving.
