Drink | Lime Lemongrass Slushie

Preparation

  • Step 1
    Bring sliced lemongrass and 1½ cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in ½ cup honey for a tart-sweet slushy and up to ¼ cup more for a sweeter slushy. Let cool.
    Step 2
    Strain syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a blender; discard lemongrass. Add lime juice, salt, and 4 cups crushed ice and blend on high just until slushy. (Be careful not to blend too long or mixture will turn watery.)
    Step 3
    Divide among tall glasses. Garnish with lime wheels and reserved lemongrass tops.
