My daughter was excited to try this out to make homemade slurpees. We put it to the test and she approves! The ice blended down perfectly to make the drink smooth unlike my big blender that sometimes leaves big ice chunks. I’m excited to try it out when we are out and about! It’s the perfect size to take with you and the handle on the side makes carrying it a breeze. Now I just need to invest in an ice maker to keep up with the amount of drinks we are going to want to make this summer!
