Frozen Drink Recipes

Old-Time Frozen Drink Recipes For Making Totally Refreshing Drinks


Soda fountain operators used frozen drink recipes to make what they called Freezes. A "Freeze" is an ade drink or a punch in which the shaved ice is allowed to remain when serving; this gives the drink a very low temperature, hence, its name. Freezes are often served garnished with fresh fruit, a sprig of mint, and straws.

A "Smash" was very similar to a "Freeze" and generally made with fountain syrups of a rich, fruity flavor. Like Freeze recipes, Smash recipes also called for shaved ice and carbonated water. Smashes are traditionally served garnished with a sprig of mint in thin glasses with straws.

Frozen Drink Recipes

These old-fashioned Smash and Freeze recipes are taken from "The Dispenser's Formulary or Soda Water Guide" compiled by the editorial staff of The Soda Fountain, published by D. O. Haynes & Co., New York, in 1915.

Carbonated water (soda water) can be found in the soft drink section of most food stores.


Fruited Freeze

Crushed fruits served in the following manner are delicious and refreshing: 1-1/2 ounces crushed fruit, juice of half a lemon, sufficient shaved ice. Put the shaved ice in a small glass, add the fruit and lemon juice, stir well, and serve with a spoon and straws. Price--8 ounces, 10 cents.

Quaker Freeze

Serve with a spoon and straws.

Shake the syrup and ice, using a heavy glass and a shaker, pour carefully into the frappe glass so as not to wash off the crusting sugar, and fill to about half an inch of the tip with plain soda water.

Prairie Moon Beverage Syrups

Rio beverage syrupWhen the old-time frozen drink recipes call for flavoring syrups, you can save yourself time and money by using Rio brand syrup concentrates from the Prairie Moon Company. I highly recommend them.
