I purchased this product so that I could make my favorite "ice". The flavor is Daquiri Ice and costs $7 a quart.  This  little machine is so easy to use and what a money saver.  We have also made several flavors of ice cream with fesh fruits that are in season.  It is  also great for dinner parties - I make the mix ahead of time then make the ice cream while we are eating dinner.  I then place the ice cream in the freezer until we are ready for dessert.
