- Divide mixture into eight 4-ounce individual storage containers. Freeze for 4 to 24 hours or until frozen.
- To serve, let frozen mixture stand for 30 to 40 minutes or until slightly thawed and slushy (see Tip).
- Tips: If using a sugar substitute, we recommend Splenda® Granular, Equal® bulk or packets, or Sweet 'N Low® bulk or packets. Follow package directions to use product amount equivalent to 2 tablespoons sugar. Nutrition Per Serving with Substitute: Same as below, except 41 cal., 10 g carb. (6 g sugars).
