Best Bourbon Slush Recipe (No Concentrates)

This bourbon slush recipe comes together in minutes and is perfect for keeping on hand for impromptu get-togethers. To make this the best slushie, I've adapted our beloved family recipe by swapping canned juice concentrates for fresh juice to create the most refreshing and delicious drink. So mix, freeze, and forget—that is, until you need a drink for unexpected guests!
