Ingredients
- 4 ripe fresh peaches, pitted and chopped
- 1/3 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 1/2 cup water or peach juice
- 3–4 cups soda (7-Up, Sprite, Club Soda, or Soda Water)
- Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Ingredient Notes

- Sugar: Start with 1/3 cup, then adjust depending on your taste or the sweetness of your peaches.

1. Prepare the peaches: Wash, pit, and chop your peaches into small chunks.
2. Blend: Add peaches, sugar, lemon juice, ice, and water (or peach juice) to your blender.
3. Blend until smooth: Keep blending until the mixture looks thick and icy. If it’s too thick, add a splash of soda or water.

Storing Tips
Homemade slurpees are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to store it:
✔️Keep leftovers in the freezer for up to 1 day.
✔️Stir or blend again before serving to regain that slushy texture.
Helpful Tips
▶Chill your soda before adding it — this keeps the slurpee icy longer.
▶Don’t over-blend after adding soda, or you’ll lose the carbonation.
▶Taste and adjust sweetness as you go.
Recipe Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor.
- Always add the soda last to keep the drink bubbly.
- For extra flavor, chill your glasses before serving.
How Long Do Slurpees Last?
A Homemade Peach Slurpee stays fresh for about 2–3 hours in the freezer before it starts to harden. You can re-blend it with a splash of soda or water to bring back the slushy texture.
If you want to make it ahead, blend the peaches and ice first, then add soda just before serving.
FAQ About Homemade Peach Slurpee
Can I Make A Homemade Peach Slurpee Without Soda?
Yes! You can replace soda with cold peach juice or sparkling water. It won’t have as much fizz, but the flavor stays amazing.
What If My Slurpee Turns Too Watery?
Add more ice and blend again until you get the right consistency.
Can I Use Canned Peaches?
You can — just drain them first and reduce the added sugar, since canned peaches are already sweetened.
Can Kids Drink This Peach Slurpee?
Of course! This is a non-alcoholic peach slush that’s perfect for kids and adults alike.
What’s The Difference Between A Slurpee And A Slushie?
They’re almost the same! A slurpee has a fizzier, lighter texture from soda, while a slushie is thicker and made with juice or water.
