Ingredients

1 cup Cherry Coke
2 ounces Jack Daniel’s whiskey
maraschino cherry, garnished

Instructions

Pour 1 cup of Cherry Coke into a standard ice cube tray. Be sure only to fill each cube ¾ full as the Cherry Coke tends to expand when frozen. Place your filled ice cube tray into the freezer for at least 8 hours or up to overnight or until your Cherry Coke ice cubes are frozen through.
Place all the Cherry Coke ice cubes into the container of a blender along with the Jack Daniel’s whiskey.
Blend on high for 15 to 30 seconds. The amount of time it takes to blend will depend on how powerful your blender is. You can add an additional 1 to 2 ounces of Cherry Coke to the blender if it needs a little extra liquid to help the Cherry Coke ice cubes blend smoother. This is really only necessary if you do not have a high-powered blender.
Pour into a 12 to 14-ounce tall glass and garnish with a maraschino cherry on top.

Notes

I like filling a few ice trays with Cherry Coke and keeping them in my freezer so I can make this frosty drink anytime. I like the ones that come with thin lids for the ice cube trays because this allows me to stack my ice cube trays in the freezer for longer-term storage.
I like to place my filled ice cube trays onto a rimmed baking tray before putting them into the freezer. This will catch any Cherry Coke that may spill over when the Coke freezes and expands. This is especially useful if you accidentally overfill each cube.
If you like your slushies really thick, you can add ½ cup crushed ice to the blender. Unless you have a very heavy-duty blender, solid ice cubes tend not to break down completely when blending this drink, making crushed ice the better option. If you are adding extra ice to the blender, then you will need to opt for the larger glass size.
This recipe will fill a 12-ounce glass to the very top. A pint-size mason jar works as an excellent glass for this drink.
