Ingredients
  

2 cups lemonade (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup strawberry puree (fresh or frozen strawberries blended)

1 cup blue raspberry slush (blue raspberry drink mix or soda mixed with ice)

1 cup crushed ice

Fresh strawberries, blueberries, and lemon slices for garnish

Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberry Puree: If using fresh strawberries, wash, hull, and blend them until smooth. If using frozen, allow them to soften slightly before blending.

    Make the Lemonade Slush: In a blender, combine 1 cup of lemonade with 1 cup of crushed ice. Blend until slushy. Pour half of this mixture into a clear glass or cup.

      Layer the Strawberry Puree: Gently pour the strawberry puree over the back of a spoon onto the lemonade slush layer to create a distinct layer without mixing.

        Add More Lemonade Slush: Blend another cup of lemonade with 1 cup of crushed ice, similar to the first slush. Carefully pour this layer over the strawberry puree in the glass.

          Top It Off with Blue Raspberry Slush: Mix the blue raspberry drink mix or soda with crushed ice in a blender until slushy, then pour this on top of the previous layers in the same manner.

            Garnish: Add whipped cream on top if desired and garnish with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and a lemon slice.

              Serve Immediately: Use a straw or long spoon to enjoy the layers.
