If you’re craving a warm-weather refresher but don’t want toxic dyes, artificial flavorings, or added sugars, we’ve stirred up the ideal summertime solution for you—Vitality™ Drops slushies. These simple recipes are packed full of flavor and will satisfy your sweet-tooth cravings in a healthier way.
Each healthy slushie recipe makes 1–2 servings but can be doubled for extra enjoyment.
Citrus Creamsicle Berry Slush
Invigorate your day with this creamy, rejuvenating slushie. Its healthy take on a familiar flavor is sure to excite your taste buds.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup + 3 tablespoons 100% orange juice
- ½ cup unsweetened Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 squeeze Jade Lemon Berry Vitality Drops +Energy
How to make the slushie:
1. Pour ½ cup of orange juice into ice cube trays. Freeze for 4–6 hours or until completely frozen.
2. Place frozen orange-juice cubes into blender with Greek yogurt, honey, and Vitality Drops. Add 3 tablespoons of orange juice to help the mixture blend more smoothly.

Honeydew Lavender Slushie Sipper
Simplify your honey-do list with this two-ingredient slushie that blends blissfully.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups frozen honeydew
1 squeeze Lavender Lemon Vitality Drops
How to make the slushie:
1. Cut honeydew into small cubes (about ½ inch). Place in a bag and put in the freezer. Freeze for 6–8 hours. (Don’t freeze the honeydew all the way through, as it will be more difficult to blend. If the honeydew becomes too frozen, simply let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes until it softens slightly).
2. Add honeydew into a blender with Lavender Lemon Vitality Drops. Blend until you reach a smooth, creamy consistency. Serve and enjoy.
YL tip: If your blender is struggling to blend up the frozen honeydew, let it thaw a little longer or add a splash of your desired liquid.
