If you don’t drink alcohol or you want to make a fruity slushy for your children, an alcohol-free variation might be perfect.

You can easily make this slushy alcohol-free by using sparkling water instead. Whilst this might not give the slushy an alcoholic flavor, it will still give the drink plenty of fizz.

If you still seek alcoholic flavors, you could always use alcohol-free Champagne instead.

Raspberry-Apple Champagne Slushies (Tequila Variation)

If you prefer a slushy that packs a stronger punch, you could always swap the Champagne out for tequila. This will give the slushy a boozier flavor that might go down nicely at a party.

The best thing about this variation is that the Champagne is the only ingredient you have to swap out.

Raspberry-Apple Champagne Slushies (Gin Variation)

Some people also like to swap out the Champagne for gin. This doesn’t alter the slushy that much but it is a good variation to try if you like gin more than Champagne.

Raspberry-Apple Champagne And Vodka Slushies

This final variation is most definitely for adults. Those of you looking to make a seriously boozy slushie might also want to throw in a generous splash of vodka to this recipe.
