National Juice Slush Day celebrates the icy treat made from frozen fruit juice. Observed on the third Wednesday in May, the day invites people to enjoy a cold, spoonable or sip-able slush in flavors such as strawberry, lime, grape, or cherry. A juice slush is an ice-based drink made with 100% fruit juice, though nearly any juice can be used.
Cool Tropics founded National Juice Slush Day to celebrate the curiosity, creative energy, and joy of youth. The company began as an equipment business marketing frozen slush before changing direction in 2008 and developing a 100% juice slush pouch that required no specialized equipment. The Registrar at National Day Calendar proclaimed the observance in 2018, with the first observance held on May 16.
How to Observe National Juice Slush Day
Celebrate by enjoying a juice slush in a favorite flavor, or make your own with fruit juice and ice. Try an unfamiliar flavor or create a new combination, then share it with friends and family. You can also take a colorful photo of your slush, relax outdoors with a refreshing drink, or invite others to compare their favorite flavors.
