Prepare the sugarcane by removing the tough outer layer to reveal the juicy inside. Cut it into small pieces.
Use a juicer or blender to squeeze out the juice. If using a blender, blend the sugarcane with water until smooth, then strain the mixture to separate the juice from the pulp.
Pour the sugarcane juice into a blender. Add cold water, honey or maple syrup (if you want), and lime or lemon juice.
Put some ice cubes in the blender to make it slushy. Blend until smooth.
Taste the slushie and adjust the sweetness or sourness by adding more honey, maple syrup, or lime/lemon juice if needed.
Pour the slushie into glasses and add fresh mint leaves for extra flavor.
.Serve right away and enjoy your homemade sugarcane juice!
