These Low-Carb Thyme Lemonade Slushies are the perfect way to cool off. They are simple to make–just put together the syrup and then let your blender do the heavy lifting! We added thyme to the recipe to give the classic lemonade flavor a grown-up, sophisticated taste, then we turned it into a slushie because, well, it’s 98º F. and ice just sounds good right now.

This recipe does require a blender that can crush ice. We used this one
and it did just fine. I find slushies work better when I add small quantities of ice and blend the mixture after each addition. This way the blades don’t get bogged down with too much ice and then get stuck.
These slushies make a great after-school treat. Don’t wait too long to make them! Fall, and hopefully cooler temperatures, is coming up fast!
Enjoy!
