Major benefit of a home slush machine
Perhaps one of the best aspects of having a home slush machine is that you’ll no longer upset the people behind you in the queue when your kids spend ages deciding on a slush flavour (and then promptly decide that they’d rather have had a different one the minute that the cup of frozen nectar is in their hands…).
When you have the luxury of slush drinks at home, the kids are far less likely to beg for them while you’re out at public events, making life more pleasant for everyone!
More advantages of having your own slush machine
Having a slush machine at home has loads of other advantages too, including:
Saving money – buying syrup in bulk and making slush drinks yourself keeps down the costs.
Convenience – imagine how cool (excuse the pun!) it would be to have a slush drink any time you felt like it, night or day!
Entertaining – wow party guests old and young by having ultra-icy drinks on tap during your birthday party, anniversary celebration or other big event.
Whatever the occasion and whoever your guests, you can be sure that slush drinks will always slip down well!
Storing your home slush machine
Most likely you’ll use your home slush machine all year round. But if, for any reason, it needs stored away for a short period or a longer stretch – for example, while the kids are away at summer camp or college – make sure you keep the family slush-maker safe so that it’s ready for action when the ravaging hordes return.
Before you put your machine away in the cupboard, first wipe it down thoroughly, taking care to remove any stickiness caused by spilt syrup. Clean all accessible non-electrical areas using food grade sanitisers to ensure you eliminate any lurking germs.
Ensure that the whole appliance is completely dry (either using a soft cloth or leave it out in the air till dry). Wrap the flex carefully round the base of the machine and store in a dry, clean cupboard until the next time you or the kids are in the mood for an ice-cool home-made drink.
