I get matcha powder at a local Asian grocery store, and citric acid at a homebrewing supply store!

I haven’t, but I don’t see any reason why that wouldn’t work!

Marie,
Have you tried this with Kool-Aid? Want to try the Mango-Peach flavor. Hmmmm.

I purchased green tea leaves from a local asian grocery store and pulverized them in my Bullet mixer to a powder state. (no one locally had the matcha) Then I pulverized the sugar too. Added back in the green tea powder for one final pulse along with my citric acid. For citric acid, I substitued the Ball brand citric acid mix found in the canning section of the grocery store. So 1 tsp pulverized green tea, 2 tsp Ball citric mix, 1 3/4 c of sugar which was then pulverized, 3 c water, and one bottle red wine (Sutter Home Sweet Red). I chilled the mix in a gallon size bag in the freezer, but got impatient. Put 1/2 the mix into my Cusineart Frozen Yogurt maker and within 5 minutes I had perfect wine slushies. Topped it off with sugar/chilli coated Gooseberries I found at the asian market. Turned out perfect.

I just purchased some slushie mix from Shipshewana and my husband I are both hooked. We are not wine drinkers either. I understand what Steve was getting at. The gal in Shipsie had a slushie machine there. The texture we had using their mix was different than what they were handing out. Steve, if you’re looking for the same texture, you could probably put the frozen slush mixture in a blender. I can’t wait to try this recipe!

If anyone tries this recipe with splenda or other SF sweeteners, I would love to know. A cousin told me she found a SF mix and I was actually looking for a place to purchase one when I stumbled onto this recipe. If nothing else, I’m wondering if you couldn’t even just halve the sugar and replace it with splenda. I’d love suggestions…
