Ninja Introduces New Frozen Drink Maker Transforming Any Beverage into a Slushy
Following the viral success of the Ninja CREAMi, Ninja has unveiled another summer essential: the Ninja Slushi, available now and set to revolutionize home frozen drinks. Perfect for staying cool during the hot season, especially with its XL capacity option for larger gatherings, the Ninja Slushi promises hassle-free frozen beverages from chocolate milk to wine, all without the need for ice. It boasts the ability to maintain drinks chilled for up to 12 hours and offers five settings to customize your drinks’ consistency and temperature.
Here’s What We Know About the Ninja Slushi
Traditional methods of making frozen drinks at home often involve crushed ice, which can quickly dilute your drinks. The Ninja Slushi solves this problem by eliminating ice altogether. Using an auger to spin drinks around a central cooling cylinder powered by the WhisperChill compressor, it can whip up frozen drinks in just 15 minutes and keep them frozen for hours. Whether you prefer soda, juice, coffee, or even spiked beverages, the Ninja Slushi can handle it—all you need is a sugary base for that classic slushy texture.
The Ninja Slushi offers five preset settings
- Slush
- Spiked Slush (for alcoholic beverages)
- Frappé
- Milkshake
- Frozen Juice
Additionally, it provides 10 temperature variations to suit different drink preferences. Its sleek design and ergonomic features, like an easy-pour slot and a no-mess dispensing handle, make it practical for continuous use at home without taking up too much space.
First Impressions of the Ninja Slushi
As an avid user of Ninja products, I find the Ninja Slushi impressively compact and perfect for blending into any kitchen decor. Its user-friendly design and efficient cooling capabilities make it ideal for extended use on hot summer days, ensuring drinks stay refreshingly cold.
Comparing Ninja Slushi and Ninja CREAMi
If you’re familiar with the Ninja CREAMi Deluxe, which excels in creating various frozen treats, you might wonder how the Slushi differs. Priced at $269, the Slushi offers superior cooling capabilities and a longer drink preservation time (up to 12 hours) compared to the CREAMi Deluxe. While the CREAMi requires pre-freezing drinks for 24 hours before mixing, the Slushi skips this step, making it quicker and more convenient for spontaneous frozen drinks. Its pouring function also makes it ideal for serving larger groups.
In conclusion, while the Ninja Slushi may have a higher price tag than the CREAMi Deluxe, its enhanced cooling technology and ease of use make it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to enjoy frozen drinks without the hassle of ice.
