You probably never went a summer as a kid without throwing back a few slushies, so why stop now? We created a refreshing cucumber and celery slushie that hits the spot in the same way, but everything about it is grown up. For starters, the ingredients are fresh. We use mint, coconut water, and lime for flavor—no fake stuff allowed. You won’t overdose on sugar, either; instead, you get a healthy dose of vitamins from honey, cucumber, and celery.
