Perhaps you’ve seen the usual red and blue slush so often that, when you think of the best slush recipes, your mind immediately goes to that inseparable duo: strawberry and raspberry.
However, while they’re still some of the most popular flavours among children, there are now all kinds of slush recipes out there!
This means that, when you start renting a slush machine, you can really get creative and choose the slush flavours that would work best for your business and target audience.
From refreshing tropical tastes to alcoholic twists for grownups, here are some of the best slush recipes to choose from.
Let’s start with one of the two top favourites: old school but timeless, this blue slush syrup never fails to catch passersby’ eyes.
This drink is fruity and sweet, perfect for a hot summer day. Unlike wrestling, you can try this at home with this simple but fun blue raspberry slush recipe.
The other half of the most iconic slush pair, strawberry is just as sweet and refreshing, bursting with fruity and luxurious flavours.
Here’s a good strawberry slush recipe to try.
Lemon & lime slush is always a lifesaver for children (or adults) who aren’t big fans of the sweetest drinks.
Tangy, exotic and delightfully citrusy, including this option in your slush machine wouldn’t be a bad idea at all, especially during the warmest months.
There’s no arguing that this is one of the most nostalgic slush flavours, perfect for both children and much older ‘kids’ alike.
A pink bubblegum slush is sweet, undeniably aesthetically pleasing, and let’s be honest: impossible to put down.
When you happen to be torn between strawberry, raspberry and some other of your favourite flavours, you don’t necessarily have to compromise… and neither do your customers.
Much like with fruit salads and smoothies, mixed fruit slush is proof that you can’t go wrong when you put a few different ones together.
The same goes for tropical fruit. If you were thinking of including a more exotic option in your slush machine but can’t decide between pineapple, mango and passionfruit, go on and try our tropical syrup.
Adding a tangy twist to the sweetest flavours, a tropical slush is a must during long summer afternoons.
This is one of the most familiar flavours, especially since we’ve all gotten to enjoy it through different types of food and drinks since childhood: orange juice, jaffa cakes, orange sweets… of course, we’ve got an orange slush syrup, too!
Plus, orange slush recipes are perfect all year round.
A list of the best slush recipes wouldn’t be complete without a few creative cocktail slush drinks!
One of the coolest (pun intended) things about them is that our classic cocktail syrups are actually alcohol-free: this means that you can sell them both as mocktails and traditional slush drinks for children or add a spirit to market them to grownups.
Mojito slush is obviously one of the best slush recipes when it comes to cocktails. With the immediately recognisable tangy flavour of lime and mint, it’s ideal for an exotic-themed day, too.
With strawberry slush being so popular, why not harness its charm by selling an irresistible grownup variation, too?
Strawberry daiquiri is the perfect refreshing mocktail or cocktail slush during a warm summer evening, but it works just as well during any other time of the year.
An evening or weekend alternative to the tropical syrup, a piña colada slush is guaranteed to become a new favourite.
Exotic pineapple, creamy coconut, and, if you decide to include it, a dash of rum: what’s not to like?
