Ingredients
  

  • 2 bottles champagne chilled
  • 4 cups ice cubes preferably crushed or small
  • 1 teaspoon citrus zest lemon or orange, optional

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Measure and chill the champagne in the bottles for several hours before preparation.
  2. Place the ice cubes into the blender, ensuring they are evenly distributed for smooth blending.
  3. Pour the chilled champagne over the ice in the blender, filling it about halfway.
  4. Add the citrus zest to the blender for a bright, aromatic note that complements the bubbles.
  5. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth, icy, and slightly slushy, about 30-40 seconds.
  6. Check the texture; it should be velvety and cold with tiny ice crystals suspended evenly throughout.
  7. Pour the champagne slushie into chilled glasses, ensuring each is filled with a shimmering, icy beverage.
  8. If desired, garnish with a twist of citrus peel or a small sprig of fresh herbs for a decorative touch.
  9. Serve immediately to enjoy the crisp, bubbly, and refreshing texture with your celebration or warm-weather occasion.

Notes

For a sweeter version, add a splash of fruit syrup or a sweet liqueur before blending. Adjust the amount of ice for a thicker or thinner consistency based on preference.
