Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure to chill the rhubarb for at least 4 hours before making the slush. This will help it to become more flavorful and easier to blend.
- If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor to make the slush. However, the texture may be slightly chunkier.
- You can adjust the amount of vodka to your liking. If you prefer a stronger punch, add more vodka.
