Recipes
Newfoundland Christmas Slush is a Batch-made Frozen Beverage that packs a citrusy Punch.
In a recent episode of Strange Truths and Tall Tales I asked Instagram food blogger Jeremy Whey (@stuffthatinyourgob) about his Newfoundland Christmas Slush Making Traditions.
He shared his recipe. I’ve transcribed it here alongside some recipes collected from friends.
