Judah Newman

A light, hydrating post-workout slushie that tastes like a juicy grape-peach smoothie with a cool, spoonable texture. Frozen grapes create the frost without needing added sugar, while a little yogurt gives gentle creaminess and staying power. Blend it hard, drink it right away, and thin with extra water if you want it more sippable.

Ingredients

Slushie
1 1/2 cups (about 225 g) seedless grapes, frozen (about 45–55 grapes, depending on size)
1 cup (240 ml) cold water, plus more as needed
1 cup (240 ml) plain unsweetened yogurt (dairy or unsweetened plant yogurt)
1 cup (about 150 g) frozen sliced white peaches (about 10–12 slices)
1–2 tbsp (15–30 ml) fresh lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
1/8 tsp fine salt

Instructions

Freeze the fruit (if needed). Spread seedless grapes and peach slices on a sheet pan in a single layer and freeze until rock-hard, at least 4 hours (overnight is ideal).

Start the blend. Add 1 cup cold water and 1 cup yogurt to the blender first, then add the frozen grapes and frozen peaches on top. Add the salt (and lemon juice if using).

Blend to a slush. Blend on high, using the tamper if you have one, until the mixture looks uniform and churns like a thick slushie. You’re looking for a smooth, icy texture with no visible fruit bits; you should hear the blender pitch drop as it catches.

Adjust thickness. If it’s too thick to move, add 2–4 tbsp water at a time and re-blend until it flows. If it’s too thin, add a handful of frozen grapes and blend again.

Serve immediately. Pour into a cold glass and drink right away while it’s frosty (or spoon it like a soft granita).

Notes

Measurement note: grape count varies a lot by size—use the cup measure as your anchor, and treat the “45–55 grapes” as a visual guide. To keep it extra hydrating and light after exercise, start with 1 cup water and don’t be shy about adding a splash more to thin. If you prefer it less tangy (and you’ve said you like warm/deep flavors), skip the lemon and add 1/4 tsp vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon instead. Storage: best fresh; if it melts, re-blend with a handful of ice or refreeze in an ice-cube tray and re-blend later.
