Method
 

  1. Place the ice cubes into the blender, filling it about halfway.
  2. Add the blue raspberry syrup over the ice, followed by the granulated sugar if using.
  3. Pour in the cold water to help the blending process and achieve a smooth consistency.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is thick, slushy, and evenly combined, about 30-40 seconds.
  5. Stop the blender and check the consistency; it should be icy and smooth with no large ice chunks remaining.

  7. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy the icy, tart-sweet refreshment.

Notes

Adjust the sweetness and tartness by varying the amount of syrup and sugar. For a stronger flavor, add a splash of lemon juice.
