Servings: 2
Yield: 2 slushies

Ingredients

  1. 1 lemon, halved
  2. 3 fluid ounces whiskey
  3. 1 ½ fluid ounces orange liqueur
  4. ¾ fluid ounce simple syrup
  5. 2 cups lightly crushed ice

Instructions

  1. Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler. Place lemon halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet.
  2. Broil until lemon halves are blackened on the cut side, about 10 minutes. Allow lemons to cool enough to handle. Squeeze juice from the lemons into a measuring cup. Measure out 1 fluid ounce broiled lemon juice, reserving the rest for another use.
  3. Combine whiskey, orange liqueur, simple syrup, and 1 fluid ounce broiled lemon juice in a blender and add ice; cover and blend until slushy consistency. Pour drinks into glasses.
