How to Make a Slushie with a Ninja Blender
Want a cool, refreshing slushie? A Ninja blender makes it super easy! Let’s learn how.
Method 1: Using Ice
This is the classic way to make a slushie.
- Step 1: Choose your flavor. What do you like? Lemonade? Fruit punch? Pour about 1 cup into your Ninja blender.
- Step 2: Add ice. Start with 1 cup of ice. You can always add more later.
- Step 3: Blend! Start with a low speed and then increase to high. Watch carefully! Blend until it’s smooth and slushy, not watery.
- Step 4: Too thick? Add a tiny bit more liquid. Too watery? Add a little more ice.
- Step 5: Enjoy! Pour into your favorite glass and enjoy!
Method 2: Using Frozen Fruit
This method makes a thicker, healthier slushie.
- Step 1: Freeze your fruit. Berries, mangoes, and bananas work great. Chop them up before freezing.
- Step 2: Add to blender. Put about 1 cup of frozen fruit into your Ninja blender.
- Step 3: Add a little liquid. A splash of juice or water helps it blend. Start with ¼ cup.
- Step 4: Blend! Start low, then go high. Add more liquid if needed.
- Step 5: Enjoy! This slushie will be thicker, like a smoothie.
Tips and Tricks
- Don’t overfill! A full blender won’t blend well.
- Pulse first. Short bursts of blending can help break down the ice before you go full speed.
- Experiment! Try different fruits, juices, and even yogurt!
