Do your kids love slushies? How would they like a simple cup that would enable them to easily make their own slushy drinks – no special equipment needed? Then let me introduce you to Blizzie, a great stocking stuffer idea for Christmas 2010! One lucky Contest Corner reader will win a Blizzie of their own, so read on!
Blizzie is a unique slushie maker that creates frosty treats thanks to its special ice cubes. To create a slushie, pop the Blizzie’s ice cubes in the freezer until frozen solid, add them to the Blizzie cup, then take your favorite pre-chilled soda, energy drink, or juice and pour it over the cubes. Screw on the lid and shake it up until it turns into a frozen treat!

The key to this is making sure that the cubes are totally frozen before attempting to make a slushie – I had a hard time with it at first because the cubes weren’t cold enough. But once they’re frozen, it’s easy to make a slushie. Bear in mind, this makes a very small serving of slushie, so it’s the perfect serving size for children but might not be enough for an adult.
The Blizzie ice cubes are re-usable and can be used hundreds of times – just rinse off the cubes and pop them back into the freezer! It also comes with a combination straw/spoon that makes it easy to enjoy your frosty treat. I love how simple it is to make a frozen drink, and the fact that it requires no special syrups or complicated preparation. I can’t wait to use this during the summer months!
Blizzie retails for $14.95 and is available at MyBlizzie.com.
