Who says you can’t enjoy a cocktail and be healthy at the same time? I’m all about finding a balance (one of many reasons I’m the ‘Juggling Act’ Mama!). I don’t diet, but I also try not to overindulge. Tropical Slush Rum Cocktails are the perfect balance between having a ‘treat’ and making a healthy choice. This recipe starts with frozen fruit (you could also use fresh if you have it on hand). It’s blended with pineapple juice to add some sweetness, and then comes the boost of Omega with the addition of Barlean’s Pina Colada Omega Swirl Fish Oil. Now, I know what’s you’re thinking, but it tastes amazing! Seriously, it’s light and creamy and tastes line pineaples and coconut, not fishy at all!

This Omega Swirl gives you 720 mg EPA/DHA per serving. It contains no artificial flavors or colors, and no sugar. It’s gluten-free and non-GMO, too. You can add it to a smoothie or even drizzle it over ice cream. For me, it’s a great way to get more Omega-3 in my diet. These slushy cocktails are just the thing on a hot summer evening, and it’s a drink you can feel good about!

Here’s how to make a Tropical Slush Rum Cocktails that are perfect cocktail for Girl’s Night:

Ingredients:
2 cups frozen tropical fruit including strawberries, mango, pineapple and coconut
1-1/4 cups pineapple juice
2 tablespoons Barlean’s Pina Colada Fish Oil
3 ounces Caribbean Rum with Pineapple Liqueur
Ginger Ale
1 Lime and Cosmo drink rimmer, if desired

Directions:

Blend the frozen fruit, juice and rum together until smooth. Pour into a 9×9 glass dish. Freeze 2-3 hours, or overnight. (Note: you could also eat this slush with a spoon instead of turning it into a drink!)

This is one of my favorite summertime cocktails! Just rub the lime around the glasses, the twist the rims in the sugar. Add a couple of scoops of the slush to each glass, then top with ginger ale. Drizzle with additional Barlean’s Pina Colada Fish Oil, if desired. Serve immediately.
