Our traditional family party drink - Citrus Slush

This is just the slush, no soda has been added to this bowl yet.

My older sister introduced this recipe to my family, and it is usually served at any Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years gathering.  I started taking it to John's family Thanksgiving, and now it has been requested ever since.  I think it will be a big hit with your family too!
