Here’s a rhubarb slush from a Professional Home Economist, so you know it’s going to be good!
Rhubarb Slush
8 cups diced rhubarb
2 1/2 – 3 cups sugar
8 cups water
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 4oz package of strawberry jello
7-Up
Place first four ingredients in a large saucepan.
Boil for 10-15 minutes.
Strain and discard pulp.
Add 1 ( 4oz ) strawberry jello.
Freeze in an ice cream pail, or margarine containers.
Remove from freezer one hour before serving.
Add 7-Up (approx equal parts slush and 7 Up).
Boil for 10-15 minutes.
Strain and discard pulp.
Add 1 ( 4oz ) strawberry jello.
Freeze in an ice cream pail, or margarine containers.
Remove from freezer one hour before serving.
Add 7-Up (approx equal parts slush and 7 Up).
Enjoy on a hot sunny day.

Tried this recipe for the first time today. I made a couple of modifications to reduce the sugar and bring out the rhubarb flavour.
1 package of unflavoured gelatin instead of Strawberry Jello
Club Soda instead of 7-UP.
Very nice. Looking forward to taking this out of the freezer on a hot sunny day.

This slush is delicious! I made it as it, but next time I may try the modification by Getty. I was just going to compost the pulp, but my son said, “no don’t – it’s good”. I used the rhubarb pulp in place of applesauce in this recipe for low fat muffins: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/oat-applesauce-muffins/Detail.aspx The muffins are wonderful! So this slush recipe gets a gold star from me, especially since I found a way to use the leftover rhubarb pulp!
