  • 0.5 cup crushed ice
Orange Layer
  • 1.5 cups frozen mango chunks
  • 0.5 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 0.5 cup crushed ice
Garnish & Glitter
  • 2 tbsp agave syrup for rimming
  • 1 tsp edible gold glitter food grade
  • 2 edible hibiscus flowers fresh, organic
  • 4 oz rum or tequila optional, split evenly between layers

Equipment

  • High-powered blender
  • Tall spiral or hurricane glasses
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

  1. Brush the outside of two tall glasses with agave syrup and dust heavily with edible gold glitter. Place in the freezer to chill.
  2. In a blender, combine frozen strawberries, guava nectar, 1 tbsp lime juice, and 1/2 cup crushed ice. Blend until thick and smooth.
  3. Transfer the pink strawberry slush to a bowl and place it in the freezer temporarily. Rinse the blender.
  4. In the clean blender, combine frozen mango chunks, pineapple juice, 1 tbsp lime juice, and 1/2 cup crushed ice. Blend until thick and smooth.
  5. Remove the glittered glasses from the freezer. Spoon the pink slush evenly into the bottom half of each glass.
  6. Carefully spoon the orange mango slush on top of the pink layer.
  7. Garnish the top of each drink with a fresh, edible hibiscus flower. Serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure your glitter is labeled as '100% Edible' and not just 'Non-Toxic'. Use frozen fruit for the best texture without diluting the drink.
