Grandma Luella's Rhubarb Slush

Here it is. Here is the rhubarb slush recipe that has become such a hit among our friends and families. My Grandma Luella helped me make a batch to take with to the Waugh-Maddock wedding. Everybody loved it and asked for the recipe. Since so many people have been asking for the recipe, I decided it would be easier to post it on our blog than writing out a bunch of recipe cards. If you have never had rhubarb slush, don't worry, you are going to love it. Enjoy!!

Rhubarb Slush
8 cups Rhubarb
3 cups Sugar
2 quarts Water
1 pkg. of Raspberry Jell-O (small)
2 cups Vodka or Apricot Brandy


Combine rhubarb, sugar, and water. Cook until tender. Strain. While hot, add 1 small package of raspberry Jell-O (strawberry can also be used, but raspberry is my favorite). Stir until Jell is dissolved. Let cool. Add vodka. Pour into a 5 quart ice cream bucket and freeze. Stir at least once during freezing process. Put 1 scoop of sluch into a glass and add one of the following: Squirt, Sprite, Strawberry Pop. Lemonade, or Champagne.

If you have any questions let me know. It is super easy and is so delicious. It is great for summer entertaining. Have a good night!!
