Coffee Slushie

A coffee slushie combines brewed coffee with ice and sweeteners, blended into a frozen, icy drink. The result is a refreshing beverage with a smooth, granular texture and a rich coffee flavor that is ideal for hot days. Its appearance is a frosty, creamy blend served in a glass, with tiny ice shards visible throughout.
