🍽️ Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prep Your Workspace Gather all ingredients and ensure your blender is clean and ready. Chill your glasses in the freezer for extra frosty perfection—trust me on this one!

Step 2: Layer Your Liquids Pour the 2 cups of orange soda into your blender first. The carbonation helps create that perfect slushy texture, so don’t let it go flat.

Step 3: Add the Flavor Powerhouse Scoop in 1 cup of frozen orange juice concentrate. If it’s rock-solid, let it sit for 2-3 minutes to soften slightly—this helps your blender work more efficiently.

Step 4: Ice Time Add 2 cups of ice to the blender. Fresh ice works best, but if yours has been sitting in the freezer forever, give it a quick rinse to remove any freezer taste.

Step 5: The Vodka Finale Pour in 1 cup of vodka as your final ingredient. This order prevents the alcohol from settling at the bottom and ensures even distribution.

Step 6: Blend to Perfection Secure that lid tightly! Start with a few quick pulses to break up the ice, then blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until the mixture is smooth and uniformly slushy. You want zero ice chunks!

Step 7: Taste and Adjust Give it a quick taste test. Want it sweeter? Add a splash more orange soda. Need more kick? A bit more vodka does the trick. This is your moment to customize!

Step 8: Serve with Style Pour into your chilled glasses, filling them about 3/4 full. The texture should be thick but pourable—like the perfect milkshake consistency.

Step 9: Garnish and Enjoy Slice fresh oranges and perch them on the rim of each glass. Not only does it look amazing, but guests can squeeze extra citrus if they want.
