The long-range weather forecast is suggesting that summer may well have arrived – with the Met Office promising above average temperatures across the country for at least the next couple of weeks.

What better way to cool off than with a frozen beverage. Whether you already offer them or are considering adding them to your menu, frozen beverages such as slushies are an excellent way of providing customers with a convenient and enjoyable experience. It’s no surprise that these icy treats have become a popular choice. Not only do they provide a thirst quenching taste, but with endless flavour options they satisfy just about any craving.

A slushy is a frozen beverage made from partially melted crushed ice & sweet ingredients such as syrups and fruit juices. Available in a wide variety of flavours, the ice in a slushy never freezes but remains in a tiny crystal form. A slushy can be eaten or drunk at the same time! Slushies have existed in some form for centuries, initially made by adding juice or fruits to freshly collected snow.

Slushies are now one of the few recession proof markets that offer retailers very high margins, and their popularity shows no sign of waning. Whether you want to cater to health-conscious consumers with low-sugar and low-calorie options, offer indulgent, decadent drinks for those with a sweet tooth, or add alcohol to your drinks for an adult treat, there are plenty of options to choose from.

The right commercial slush machine allows you to cater for any consumer tastes, provides visual impact, has a high capacity, quiet operation, and excellent control over slush consistency.
