How long does it take to set up the Slushee machine? The machine is easy to set up. Best of all we will set it up for you and have you ready to go (Ready to drink) in about 2 hours, we recommend that you have the machine ready to go when you start to prepare for your party as that’s thirsty work.
How much alcohol should I put in? That’s up to you most people put in between 1-2 bottles of liquor per cocktail mix depending on how strong you would like it to be. We recommend putting in about 1/2 of your spirits that you are initially thinking then taste and decide if you still want to add more. At a rough guide, 1 x 700ml bottle of spirits is equivalent to 1/2 nip per cup hence 2 x 700ml bottles of spirits are close to 1 nip per cup. Pro Tip, if you have added enough of your favourite liquor and you still wish to raise the volume of alcohol you can add vodka to increase the strength of alcohol without overpowering the slushee flavour.
How do I work the machine? When your machine is delivered it will be set up for you and we will give you some simple instructions to follow. Video instructions here.
​
Do you sell Cups and straws? Yes, you can purchase cups and straws, we have a selection of plastic and bio-plastic cups and Jumbo paper straws to make it easier to drink your Slushee. We recommend the smaller cups as there is less chance that your slushies will melt before you finish drinking them and less chance that they will be thrown away.
​
Can I purchase an extra Slushee mixture so I don't run out? Yes, we are happy to supply you with an extra mix if you think you need it we will even repurchase it from you if you don’t use it, as long as it hasn’t been opened. We recommend getting a backup of the same Slushee flavours as already selected. This way, it is easier to top up and keep the machine running to reduce downtime and waste. We are happy to discuss and make recommendations based on your individual requirements.
Can I purchase Slushee Mixtures without hiring a Machine? Yes, you can select from our wide range of slushies, please ring in advance as our Slushies are only made to order and it is best if orders are placed with anticipation so that you don't miss out.
