Crown Royal Apple Rancher Slushie Recipe

The Ultimate Boozy Slushie for Beating the Summer Heat

There’s nothing quite like an icy, slushy cocktail to take the edge off a sweltering summer day. As the temperatures soar, you need a thirst-quenching, refreshing drink that can also provide a little boozy buzz. This frozen Crown Royal Apple whisky slushie checks all those boxes – it’s cool, crisp, fruity, and spiked with just the right amount of kick.

The most special ingredient is either Green Jolly ranchers or Crown Royal Apple, but I can’t really decide. I love both so much and admit to eating quite a few of the Jolly Ranchers I unwrapped before any made it into the blender.

If you’ve never tried Crown Royal Apple, it’s such a special new flavor you just may love. Try it plain, but this cocktail recipe really elevates its apple flavor to the next level.

Even better, it’s incredibly easy to whip up a big batch of these frosty cocktails with just a few simple ingredients and a blender. No need for any fancy equipment or complicated recipes. Just blend and serve!

This slushie’s vibrant green apple flavor comes from a combination of Jolly Rancher candies, green apple Gatorade, and Crown Royal’s apple-infused Canadian whisky. With a bright lemon zing from lemonade and a subtle sweetness, it achieves the perfect sweet-tart balance.

It’s the kind of dangerously drinkable cocktail that’ll have you and your guests happily sipping away all afternoon. Let’s get mixing!

Crown Royal Apple Slushie Cocktail Ingredients:

• 1 cup lemonade
• 1/2 bottle green apple Gatorade (around 1 cup)
• 4 green apple Jolly Rancher candies
• 1 cup Crown Royal Apple whisky
• 3 cups ice cubes

For the Fun Garnish (Optional):

• Granny Smith apple slices
• Sugar for rimming glasses

Step-by-Step Instructions for the Recipe:

Step 1.

Add all ingredients to a blender in any order you want, but I make my Crown Apple Jolly Rancher drinks this way:

First, the lemonade

Next, add the Green Apple Gatorade

Add the Crown Royal Apple Bourbon to your slushie ingredients

Next, add the green apple Jolly Ranchers

Step 2.

Blend on the highest setting until smooth and slushy, around 1-2 minutes. The green apple jolly ranchers may get stuck initially, so you made need to start and stop the blender a few times to get everything incorporated. Keep blending until you have a smooth, frozen slushie consistency with no chunks remaining.

Step 3.

Pour some sugar onto a small plate. Run the outer edge of each apple slice through the sugar to lightly coat it. Then rest each apple slice garnish on the rim of your glass.

Step 4.

If garnishing your glasses, prepare them now. Cut 1/4 inch thick round slices from a granny smith apple. Use a small knife to cut a slit from the outer edge toward the center of each slice, creating an opening to rest on the rim of the glass.

Step 5.

Pour the slushie directly from the blender into your garnished glasses, filling them 3/4 of the way full. Serve immediately with a spoon and/or straw.

Step 6.

For a frosty refill, simply keep the unserved slushie in the blender and blend again for 10-15 seconds before pouring more.

That’s it! You’ve just earned your frosty cocktail bliss.

This big-batch slushie recipe is perfect for serving a crowd at any summer occasion. Whether it’s a backyard BBQ, pool party, outdoor wedding, or just hanging with friends on the patio, everyone will be reaching for refills of this utterly refreshing adult slushie.

You can easily double or triple the batch as needed by keeping the same ratios of ingredients. And the garnish is totally optional – the slushie is sublime on its own. But that pretty green apple garnish with a sugar-coated rim really kicks things up a notch!

The crisp, tart green apple flavor combined with the smooth, warming whisky notes is such a brilliant pairing for warm weather sipping. Each frosty sip is utterly quenching yet still delightfully boozy.

This recipe is a guaranteed favorite that you’ll be making on repeat all season long. Simple to blend up with basic ingredients, it’s the ultimate way to beat the heat while enjoying an indulgent cocktail. Grab that Crown Royal Apple and jolly ranchers and get ready to chill out with the slushie of the summer!
