This indeed is a very tart tart slush. I ended up having to add 1 packet of Splenda to the mix as it was just a bit to sour for me. This is personal preference though and so for those that like really sour slushies, this would fit the bill. Very refreshing and would make a great drink for a hot summer day!~ Made for PhotoTag~

AN OUTSTANDING SLUSH with a great citrus flavor ~ REALLY, REALLY GREAT, & the recipe IS a keeper! So cool & refreshing ~ A great lemonade that you eat with a spoon (or at least I did)! Thanks for sharing! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup cooking game]

This slush really hit the spot. I would imagine adding a sprig of mint or mint extract would make this slush even more amazing!
