Hopefully we have a few more weeks of nice, warm weather coming our way. If so, you might really enjoy these adorable little mason jar shooters full of a burst of cold and limey goodness. Definitely not a typical shooter (unless you enjoy a severe brain freeze!) but great as an after BBQ treat and palate cleanser. They could easily be converted to a full size beverage by putting the lime slush in a 12 oz. glass and adding more of the lemon lime soda.
Make the drink lower cal and low sugar by using a sugar free lime jello and stevia (to taste) instead of sugar!

Lime Daiquiri Slush
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. Fresh Mint Leaves (hold a few back for garnish)
- 1 tbsp Sugar (use Stevia to taste for lower calories and sugar)
- 1 can Frozen Limeade Concentrate (thawed)
- 1/2 3 oz. package Lime Jello (use sugar-free for lower calories and sugar)
- 1/2 c. Boiling Water
- 1 c. Cold Water
- 1/2 c. Lemon Lime or Grapefruit Soda (Ting is good if you can find it)
- 1/2 c. White or Silver Rum (we used Bacardi Superior)
Instructions
- Pour the Lime Jello into a mixing bowl. Add the boiling water and mint leaves. Slightly muddle the mint leaves in the boiling water.
- Stir until the Jello has dissolved. Cover and let it sit for 20-30 minutes.
- Remove the mint by pouring through a strainer.
- Add the cold water, limeade, soda and rum. Mix well.
- Pour into a gallon size freezer bag and refrigerate for 6 hours or longer.
- Scoop into the mason glass shooters, garnish with a mint leaf and a paper straw – or a dessert spoon. Because of the size of the mason glass shooter, we cut the paper straws in half to fit.
- If you'd rather make these a full size beverage, pour 2/3 c. of mix into a 12 oz. glass then top it off with more lemon lime or grapefruit soda. Enjoy!
