This is the perfect frozen drink maker for at home and on the go! We tried the regular shaved ice and then the fine shaved ice. We love that the fine shaved ice was just like the shaved ice you get from a truck! We mixed it with lemonade but are already coming home with different recipes to try with hot summer days coming up. We're excited to take it on the boat with us or to the beach since it has a handle and all we need is ice and a mixer. It's a high quality mixer but compact!
