I’m always looking for a healthy snack for my kids. They love to buy slushies during the summer time, but those are so full of sugar and I need my kids to eat healthier. So I was so happy that Mott’s® asked me to come up with a recipe using Mott’s 100% Apple Juice 64oz.
I headed to Target and grabbed a few things to help me with my recipe.
I am trying to teach my kids to make healthy choices during snack time. Mott’s helps me do that with 100% juice to replace other beverages.
And natural applesauce to replace other not so healthy snacks like chips and cookies.

I am so excited to take the kids to see The Secret Life of Pets. It looks like the cutest movie. We have a dog, a turtle and 6 chickens. So it will be fun to find out what they do all day when we are not home. Ha Ha!
Now let’s move on to the super easy, delicious, and healthy recipe using Mott’s 100% Apple Juice 64oz.
Apple Juice & Strawberry Slushies
- Mott’s 100% Apple Juice 64oz
- 3-4 strawberries
Freeze about 1/2 of the juice in an ice cube tray for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Add the apple juice ice cubes to the blender and add about 1 cup of apple juice to the ice cubes and blend for about 30 seconds, adding a little more juice as needed to make a slushie.
Cut the green leaves off the strawberries and slice them into about 4 pieces.
Add them to the slush and blend on high for about 15 more seconds.
Enjoy!

What a delicious idea! It’s incredibly hot here and my kids keep asking for super sugary snacks to help cool off. I bet they would enjoy a healthy apple juice strawberry slushie! Yum! #client

WOW! This is totally what I need! Thanks so much! Now to dig the ice cube trays out of the storage room.
I’m going to post a link to this on my blog to spread the word. Hope that is OK.
