It seems like the summer heat is here early, and if the recent weather has you excited for cold drinks to finish sweltering days, this hot Amazon Prime Day deal on the Ninja Slushi is exactly what the doctor ordered.
Launched in February this year, the Slushi sold out almost immediately, much like the currently discounted Ninja Creami and Ninja Swirl before it. Now, with this limited-time deal, the Ninja Slushi has rarely been a better buy.
With this machine, the days of blending ice and your favourite beverage in the hopes that it results in something drinkable are over. Not only is that method impractical, but it also waters it down to the point that it’s barely recognisable. The Slushi brings nearly any frozen drink to your fingertips, from spiked slushies and frozen juices to milkshakes, no ice needed. Previously only for the biggest slushie lovers, this 40% off discount makes it an easy recommendation for any Aussie home as summer looms.
Earning four stars in our Ninja Slushi review, it simply does exactly what it promises – offering frozen drinks from home with no stress. The biggest drawbacks we found were its large footprint and the fact that consistency can vary between drink types – though the latter is hardly the machine’s fault. It has an easy-to-use control panel and is surprisingly quiet. Whether you’re planning to host a frozen cocktail party every weekend or just want to sit on the couch watching The Ashes with a frozen cola in your hand, the Ninja Slushi is for you.View Deal
Nearly every new product from Ninja – from the aforementioned Creami and Swirl to the Ninja Stack air fryer and the Ninja Luxe Café Premier coffee machine – comes with massive media (and social media) attention.
And, while it was sold out when we were writing our review, our tester had no qualms confirming it’s worth the hype – as long as you love a frozen drink. While you might think the best blenders could do a similar job… they can’t.
The Slushi’s RapidChill Technology is the differentiator – using an evaporator, auger and motor to continuously rotate the liquid while chilling, giving it the slushed texture you want. And unlike many other Ninja appliances, the Slushi has no real competitor on the market.
While chilling your drink before churning can speed up the process, the Slushi takes less than 30 minutes to completely freeze, and it lets you know when it’s ready. Plus, ensuring the party can go on all evening, it can churn for as long as 12 hours – keeping your slushy consistency as long as you need.
The one caveat is that the drinks do require sugar to freeze. In fact, the machine will actually alert you when the minimum sugar levels aren’t met. While you don’t have to use full-sugar sodas, other sweeteners like syrup or honey are needed to meet the machine’s requirements, so drinks cannot be completely sugar-free. This is similarly the case with alcohol, with the machine alerting you when too much alcohol has been added (because it stops it from freezing).
Well worth its original price for the right person, the Ninja Slushi is a welcome addition to any Aussie home. Its ability to freeze any beverage without watering it down means it will suit fans of all kinds of drinks. And, considering it’s 40% off right now, now’s the time to start mastering your recipes before temperatures hit 40°C.
