Turn your favorite beverage into a Slushee!

The Slush Mug can turn nearly any beverage into a Slushee in just minutes. You want a Coke Slushee? Done. How about a Sunkist Slushee? No problemo. Hawaiian Punch? Done-zo. Root beer? Check.  We could go on all day.  The point is that you can turn nearly any beverage into a delicious frozen treat in about 6 minutes with the Slush Mug.

So, what can't the Slush Mug turn into a Slushee? Answer: artificially sweetened beverages. Basically, the only thing the Slush Mug won't work with are diet sodas.

Pour nearly any beverage into the Slush Mug's GlacierCore to turn it into a Slushee.

The secret is in the patented Glaciercore

The Slush Mug actually consists of two parts: the Glaciercore and the Plastic Mug.  The secret to creating perfect Slushees rests within the Glaciercore. Simply freeze the core, pour your beverage into it, and presto-change-o, you've got a Slushee. 

A super-freezing and non-toxic refrigerant is permanently sealed inside the Glaciercore. This makes it possible for the Glaciercore to freeze your beverage to super-frosty Slushee-making temperatures. In fact, the Glaciercore cools your drink to 34ºF (and at the same time crystallizes the ingredients in your beverage) without watering it down.

The Glaciercore is designed to fit in most freezer doors.

The Slush Mug is incredibly easy to use.  Just freeze the Glaciercore, pour in your beverage, and wait about 6 minutes (stirring occasionally) until your Slushee is ready to eat.  It's basically a hand-held Slush maker!

You can now enjoy a refreshing Slushee, made from your favorite non-diet beverage, at any time. Relaxing on the couch? Have a Slushee.  Hanging out by the pool? Have a Slushee. Reading about your favorite Slushee-making product on your favorite website? Have a Slushee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: So, can I make a Mountain Dew Slushee?

Answer: Yes. As long as the beverage isn't diet, it should make a great Slushee.  Here's a short list of some of our favorite Slushees:

  • Root Beer
  • Sunkist
  • Coke / Pepsi
  • Grape Juice
  • White Russians (you read that right)
  • Hawaiian Punch
  • Nestle Quick
  • Cream Soda
  • Creamsicle (Orange Juice, Milk, and Vanilla)
  • Coffee

Question: How long will the Slushee last?

Answer: The Glaciercore will keep your Slushee in that perfectly slushed state for up to two hours.

Question: Does the Glaciercore ever go bad?

Answer: No. However, if something should happen, the manufacturer backs the Slush Mug with a lifetime warranty.

Question: How does it work?

Answer: The patented non-toxic refrigerant sealed inside the Glaciercore lowers the temperature of the beverage to 34ºF.  At this temperature, the ingredients in the drink crystallize and turn the drink into a Slushee.  Unlike ice, the Slush Mug won't water down your drink.

Question: Why couldn't I just add a bunch of ice to my drink and blend it?

Answer: Because that's not a Slushee.  That would be more like a snow cone, but not as good.  The Glaciercore cools down the drink and causes the crystalization (Slushee effect) without watering down your drink.

Question: How long does it take to freeze the Glaciercore?

Answer: That depends on the temperature of your freezer, but it normally takes about six hours.  If you're worried about not being able to make enough Slushees to satisfy your cravings, buy two!  Or, after you create each Slushee, pour the contents into a bowl and toss the Glaciercore back into the freezer.  If you've only had it out of the freezer for a few minutes, it shouldn't take long to re-freeze the core.

Question: Is the Slush Mug dishwasher safe?

Answer: Maybe. It's best to hand wash the Glaciercore as some new dishwashers reach such high temperatures that they may deform the core.

Question: So, is the Slush Mug a slush maker, slushy maker, slushie maker, slushee maker, or icee maker?

Answer: All of the above! Whether your spell it slushy, slushie, or slushee, the Slush Mug is going to make one and it's going to taste darn good.

Question: Where can I buy the Slush Mug?

Burning Questions: You Ask and We Answer

Burning Questions: You ask and we answer!
Your questions that have been answered by the Vat19.com staff:
Why does it have to be a "non-diet" beverage?
For some reason, artificially sweetened beverages do not slush as well as naturally sweetened ones. If you're looking to avoid high sugar content, you can try coffee or chocolate milk slushees.
It should come with a recipe book!
It does! The Slush Mug comes with a small pamphlet that gives a few suggested recipes like Orange Creamsicle and Mocha Ice. YUM!
I am so hurt! Why won't the Slush Mug work with artificially sweetened drinks? I am a diabetic and couldn't wait until you got more in stock, now I am crushed...
Sorry, artificially sweetened drinks just don't have the sugar content required to make a slushee. These kinds of drinks will result in hard ice rather than a full-bodied slush.
What type of plastic is used to make the Slush Mug Glacier core? (is it BPA free)?
LDPE plastic is used in the Glaciercore. It is BPA-free.
what is the "super freezing refrigerant" inside the glacier core?
The freezing refrigerant inside of the Glaciercore is made of a secret formula (which the manufacturer does not disclose) that is patented.
what are the sizes?
The Slush Mug is only available in this 12-ounce size.
is it possible to make a tea slushee with the slush mug?
We don't see why not. A sweet tea with lotsa sugar would be delish.
I understand that artificial sweeteners won't work, but what about natural ones like Stevia? Could this be substituted for sugar in something like lemonade to make a lower-calorie slushie?
Neither Vat19 nor the manufacturer have tried to make a slushie using Stevia, so we can't say how that would work out.
If I were to use an energy drink like Red Bull or Monster, would the ginseng and other things that give the drink that kick still be intact if I used the energy drink in The Slush Mug?
The Slush Mug will not alter the ingredients of the drink. However, we have not tested the Slush Mug with an energy drink, so we don't know how slushy it will get.
hi just wondering do you need to stir beverage with a plastic or metal spoon or is there no difference, i remember having one as a child and it came with a plastic colour coded spoon
You can use any kind of spoon you like! You could even use the front-loader spoon from our Constructive Eating Utensil Set (wink, wink).
hey where do you get them in australia
We are not aware of a brick-and-mortar store in Australia that carries the Slush Mug, but Vat19.com does ship worldwide!
why wont it work with artifically falvored stuff?
Drinks with artificial sweeteners do not yield the same soft, full-bodied slush that you'd get with a naturally-sweetened drink. This doesn't mean you have to use a drink with high sugar content such as soda. You can also try chocolate milk or coffee slushees!
The slush mug works on sunny D and koolaid. But, it doesn't work on soda. I tried everything but it still doesn't work. Why?
Are you using diet soda? Diet drinks do not work well in the Slush Mug because they don't contain sugar, and sugar is what helps create a full-bodied slushee. We've used the Slush Mug with root beer and coca cola with awesome results.
Can it work with chocolate milk , to make something like ice cream?
You could make a slushee with chocolate milk, but it would not be the same consistency as ice cream. We made one with Frappuccino and it was delicious!
Is there possible way to make the slushee last for more than 2 hours?
Once the core is frozen solid, it is as frozen as it will get. Unfortunately we aren't able to break the laws of physics to extend a slushee's lifespan.
Can this work on rice water? Or tamarind water?
Sorry, neither Vat19 nor the manufacturer have tested these types of water with the Slush Mug. Keep in mind that the beverage needs to be naturally sweetened to work properly.
I'm on a weight loss program and I used things like crystal light. I understand that you can't use anything with artificial sweetners (why is that?), but can I freeze water and stir the powder?
Natural sugar is what makes the slushie soft and full-bodied. Water alone, or water with artificial sweeteners, will freeze too tightly in the Slush Mug, and you'll end up with something much more icy, rather than slushy.
Why won't it work with diet soda...is their anything I can do
You probably could use a diet soda in the Slush Mug, but be warned that it will not yield great results. The slush will be much more hard and icy, rather than the soft, full-bodied slush you would get using a naturally sweetened drink. For some reason, it's the sugar that yields a great slushee.
Can you make a slushie with just water so its kinda like snow?
Not really. Drinks with sugar content yield the most full-bodied slushees in the Slush Mug. Plain water would tighten up too much and become just icy. If you want snow, though, check out our Insta-Snow. You can create realistic-looking "snow" in just seconds!
If I put white milk it it, would it be like vanilla ice cream?
No. Ice cream isn't made out of just milk, so you'd end up with a milk slushee.
Can I make a slushee out of booze?
Yes.
What happens if you stick your finger up against the Glaciercore and hold it there?
It would get extremely cold and if your finger was wet, it could freeze to it. Why would you want to do that anyway?
does it work on soup?
It would depend on the soup. For example, a tomato or cream soup should work since milk-based products work well in the Slush Mug. However, we don't know why you'd want cold, slushy soup!
I am buying this as a gift. Does it come with some kind of instructions on how to use it?
Yes, there is an instruction sheet that also includes some delicious slushee recipes.
If I put a cup of coke in the freezer, it will freeze solid into a block of ice. Why is it that the slush mug will turn it into slush instead?
The Slush Mug crystallizes sugar rather than freezing it.
How long do you have to stir?
After you pour your beverage into the Slush Mug's frozen Glaciercore, you'll want to stir it every 2-3 minutes until you reach the desired slush consistency. For us, this took about 6 minutes.
Can you use Strawz to drink it? Or do you have to let it melt a bit?
Drinking your slushee with a straw is possible, but we'd rather use a spoon. To making using a straw easier, you could let it melt a little.
why do we have to wait 6 hours for the white thingy to freeze ps BRAIN FREEZE AHHH IT HURTS
The Glaciercore needs to be completely frozen to make an awesome slushee in just minutes. Just keep it in your freezer and whenever you have a slushee craving you'll be able to make one quickly!
When you say coffee slushee, do you mean pouring in coffee, or pouring in the ready-made frappaccino glass bottles from Starbucks? Frappaccino slushee sounds good:)
We tried it with one of the Starbuck's bottled Frappuccinos and it worked well. You can use regular coffee, but you'll need to let it cool first and add cream and sugar. The more cream you add, the better the slushee.
does coke count as an artificially sweetened drink?
No. A regular Coke will make a delicious slush! A diet Coke, on the other hand, will not be as successful.
will it work with milk? [I LOVE MILK SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!]
Yes, you can make a milk (or even better, chocolate milk!) slushees.
Can you use a straw to drink the slush or do you have to use a spoon?
A big straw may work, but for us a spoon works best.
What happens if you do use diet? will it explode?
No, it won't explode. It just won't slush as nicely. It'll be more like hard ice crystals rather than a soft slush.
i watched the video and why not use diet soda?
Diet soda does not have the sugar content required for making a slushee.
Why does the drink need natural sugar to slush?
Because drinks that have been naturally sweetened do not freeze the same as artificial or unsweetened drinks.
If I eat my first slush and the Glaciercore is still frozen, can I make another slush from the same Glaciercore without refreezing it?
Yes, if the Glaciercore is still frozen solid, you can make another slushee.
would it work the same if i remove the refrigerant and make my own inclosure like a sealed bucket to make more slush? and the last six digits of your # is my birthday. lol.
Cool about our phone number and your birthday! But not cool about removing the refrigerant from the Slush Mug Glaciercore. Please do not pierce or intentionally break the Glaciercore in order to remove the refrigerant. It's non-toxic, but it would be messy and just not good.
would it work with green tea? such as the brand Arizona Green Tea?
As long as the green tea drink has natural sugar it should slush up nicely.
i am not familiar with 12 oz , is that 2 liters? and can i make less , for example if i don't want to make a full one and have leftovers.
12 oz is the size of a can of soda here in the United States. A liter is approximately 34 oz. You do not have to pour in all 12 oz.
My sister-in-law who lives with us is pregnant and sick with a fever. Can I put water in this and make sure she drinks it soon, so as it EXTRA cold. Because when i was observing the slushifying process, it took a little while for the slush to form.
Some slush will start to form right away, so she can eat the slush as it forms. A full slush takes about 5-7 minutes to form.
The Slush Mug reminds me of an ice-less ice cream machine, those machines don't make ice cream well but make great frozen yogurt. Does it seem like this might be the case for the Slush Mug?
The Slush Mug makes great slushees! It is not going to make an airy Slurpee or Icee-like consistency though.
You guy are the best Store EVER SO will u ever make a REAL store??? like physical
Probably not, but I can't say that for sure. Physical retail stores are extremely expensive to maintain.
I use the Slush Mug every month, but if I put it in the freezer every month will it break?
Leaving your Slush Mug in the freezer will not harm the mug or the Glacier Core. In fact, we recommend that you leave your Slush Mug in the freezer so that it will always be ready to go when you want a slushed drink.
How far up do I fill it with soda?
You should be able to fit just about an entire can of soda (12 oz).
Can you buy the slushie mug anywhere for a lower price?
We have not seen The Original Slush Mug available at a lower price. We hope you'll become a Vat19 customer!
my mom said it wont work... if it doesnt can i send it back?
Yes, the Slush Mug has a lifetime guarantee. We also want to mention that we have never had a Slush Mug fail (so long as the drink being used had a high enough natural sugar content).
I have a slush mug and I love it! I actually got it 4 years ago, but it still works like new. I've given about 5 to my friends. It's really neat!
We're glad to hear you love the Slush Mug!
How much slushee does it make?
Twelve ounces.
When you are not using the Slush Mug can you keep the GlaicerCore in the freezer?
Yes. In fact, we have been recommending that for years because it doesn't make sense to completely thaw it out when you're not using it. By leaving it in the freezer it's always ready to go!
How long is it reusable for?
The Slush Mug will, for all intents and purposes, last indefinitely.
What do I do if my slush mug breaks or is defective?
If your product arrives damaged or broken, please contact us immediately and we will do our best to send you a replacement.
I've noticed some other people asking if energy drinks work,so i tested it myself. I tried red bull, and while it looked like pee, it slushed nicely and was quite enjoyable. slush mug ftw!
Thanks for letting us all know!
im from england but i REALY want a slushie mug so how can i pay?
You can pay with a credit card or through PayPal.
So wait... The Glaciercore holds 12 oz.. Yet a 12 oz can of soda won't fit? doubleyou..tee..eff..
The GlacierCore holds 12 ounces of liquid. However, it can't physically house a soda or beer can. So, while the liquid contents of a 12 oz can of soda or beer will fit inside the GlacierCore, the can itself will not. Basically, the GlacierCore is a little thinner and a little taller than a standard soda can.
What kind of spoon do we use? Metal or plastic spoons?
Whichever you prefer.
what happens if i leave the glaciercore in the frezer longer than 6 hours
Nothing. You can leave the Glaciercore in the freezer 24/7. That way you'll always have it ready for a slushee.
could i keep the Glaciercore in the freezer all the time and just take it out whenever i want to use it (like once a week)? or would that damage it or make it crack?
Yes, you can keep the Glaciercore stored in the freezer so it is always ready when you want a slushee. It is intended to be frozen!
Will it work with alocholic mixes?
Absolutely! The best mixes would be with higher sugar content, like daiquiris or pina coladas.
Can the glaciercore over freeze?
No. I'm not really sure how something can be more frozen than frozen.
Will it work on beer?
We've heard mixed reports of it working with low-alcohol content beers, but generally speaking we would have to say no.
What happens if I microwave it?
Microwaving your Slush Mug could very well ruin it and possibly your microwave. There is no need to microwave it, so we strongly caution you against it.
Does it work better if I store my soda's in the fridge before using them in my Slush Mug?
Your soda does not have to be cold, but a cold soda will make a slushee a little faster than a room temperature soda.
Is it similar to the slushee magic?
Not at all. The key difference is that our product actually works.
If I keep the glaciercore in the freezer for more then 6 hour (or a few days),what will happen?
Nothing at all. In fact, we recommend keeping the GlacierCore in the freezer all the time so it's ready to go when you want a slushed drink.
Are you positive that it really works? Because I know the slushy magic people are lying, and thats a piece of pure garbage.
We couldn't agree more. The Slush Mug definitely works and does not need a late night commercial filled with frolicking urchins to help sell.
Can I use Monster energy drink?
Go for it!
what is the s&h
You can use the "Calculate Shipping" link near the top of the page to obtain shipping quotes.
How can you eat the slushie at the bottom of the cup?
Use a spoon!
Can you freeze Pulpy?
As in pulpy orange juice? Yes, it should work.
Can you over freeze the glaciercore?
Nope! In fact, we recommend keeping the GlacierCore in the freezer all the time so it will always be ready to go.
Can you just add sugar to water and dump it into the core?
Theoretically, but that sounds kind of gross honestly. Don't forget too that the sugar has be completely dissolved into the water, not simply added into it.
what will happen if you do put diet drinks in the slush mug?
The drink will not slush up very well.
How come the GlaicerCore doesn't make the liquid turn watery?
Because ice (which will eventually start to melt and water down the drink) is not added to your beverage. The core freezes your beverage enough to make it slushy.
Do You Accept Visa Gift Cards?
Yes.
Do you add water in the glacier core, or all you have to do is put a beverage and the glacier core turns it into a slushee . Also my mom is going to buy one for each of my 3 cousins will they fight if they each get a different color?
You do not need to add anything to the Glaciercore; you simply put the core in the freezer. Once it is frozen solid, you add your beverage. Hopefully they won't fight about the color - they should be happy just to have such an awesome slushee mug!
I found a gas station that sells slushies in a large size for cheaper than this. I also don't have to buy drinks and have to wait 6 hours and then another 6 minutes to make one. I also love using the machine why should i buy this?
Because you only have to buy the Slush Mug once. You have to buy the slushies at the gas station over and over again, therefore spending more money in the end.
BEST PRODUCT EVER
Holla!
This kicks a*s!!!
It certainly does.
What do you mean by "Full bodied concistency"?
That the slushee is nice and thick. It isn't watery and you could easily eat it with a spoon.
$10 for a slushy machine replacement sounds too good. What's the catch? Could it really be *that* good?!
No catch. It really is THAT good!
Can you create the slushie and toss the whole thing back into the freezer to create a more frozen italian ice concoction?
You could make a slush and then put it in the freezer so it gets even harder. The manufacturer recommends pouring the slush out of the Slush Mug. You'd have to check on it so that it doesn't freeze solid like a popsicle though.
when you have added the drink do you just leave it for a bit.
It's best to stir the drink occasionally to speed up the slushing process.
What was the weirdest flavor you tested with the slush mug?
Some people hated the frappuccino slushee I made, but I thought it was delicious!
Can you use frozen drinks (like lemonade/limeade in a can)? And if so, how?? Thanks
If you make juices from concentrate (frozen in a can) they should work just fine. You would just need to make the juice and pour it into the Slush Mug. We don't think using the solid "chunk" of juice concentrate would work very well!
I bought the cup and I tried making the slushy. I placed my glaciercore in the freezer for 6 hours, the i poured Coke into it. I tried stirring the Coke for a few minutes but it didn't work. Why?
This is almost always because the freezer wasn't cold enough. Make sure that your freezer is set to at least -10F.
Is the coke (coca-cola) slushee tasty? Or it get's mostly water?
It tastes great! I'm not sure how it'd be mostly water since you're not adding ice.
Is there any chemical's in the glaciecore I should no about.
No. The refrigerant is perfectly safe and completely non toxic.
What's the point in this, when you can just freeze a drink in a freezer-safe container then stir it to crush it a little?
I'm a little surprised that this question is as common as it is. Your method would require waiting for the soda to freeze, which would take a few hours. The slush mug would ALREADY be frozen since you're supposed to keep it in the freezer. This means that you would only have to wait a few minutes for the mug to slush your drink.
Will it work with sweet tea?
Theoretically it should. Any non-alcoholic drink that is made with sugar should slush.
Why can't I just buy a pop, put it in the freezer for 3 and a half hours, take it out then shake it. That makes an instant slushie too.
Not only is three and a half hours not instant, but putting a soda in the freezer would likely cause it to explode.
Is it hard to get the core out the outside part when done using it?
It's a tight fit but I wouldn't say it's difficult by any means.
Why does the drink I use have to contain sugar?
Because drinks that have been naturally sweetened do not freeze the same as artificial or unsweetened drinks.
I used blue gatorade in the slushee mug and it turned out quite nicely, only slightly icey. I have a question though, is there anything you can do with the core, other than make slushees?
That's pretty much all it was designed to do. I suppose you could make a planter out of it, but who would want to do that?
Just a quick question, if I were to add a little bit of sugar to something not deemed sugary enough to be turned into a slushy, would it still have the same effect?
It should, but only as long as the sugar is fully dissolved into the drink.
Could I refrigerate Hot Chocolate and then make it into a slushee?
That should work. Just make sure that your drink is completely chilled.
can you make slushies out of 100% juce ???
Sure. Just make sure that the juice has some amount of natural sugar in it (most do).
How long will it last?
With proper care, the Slush Mug should last basically forever.
The only natural sweetener I can think of is sugar. What if someone has diabetes and needs to keep their sugar at a minimum? Are there any no- to low-sugar drinks that work nicely for the Slush Mug?
Not that we're aware of. Part of living with a disease like diabetes is learning to live without certain things. This may sound insensitive, but there simply isn't any way to create a sugar-free slushy with the Slush Mug.
Will fruit juices work? After all, most juices are naturally sweet, but I don't know if that will freeze the same as added sugar.
Most fruit juices will work as they naturally contain sugar.
My slush mug only makes slushies if the drink poured into the core are cold too. Is this normal?
Yes, that is normal. Warm or hot drinks may not slush properly (if at all).
What if you add Xylitol to water? Will it work?
We haven't tried xylitol, but it is a naturally occurring sugar so it may work.
Will this product work with regular white milk or just storebought chocolate and strawberry flavoured?
Yes, regular milk should work with the Slush Mug.
Does it work with Kool-aid?
Yes, the Slush Mug will work perfectly with Kool-aid!
If you freeze it more in the freezer dose it effect the coldness of the beverage?
Not if the core is frozen solid already. Once the core is completely frozen solid it is completely frozen solid.
Is there a lid for the slush mug? for take out
No, the Slush Mug does not have a lid.
If the glacier core is left in the freezer for over the 6 hours it takes to freeze it, will it break?
Nope, you can leave the core in for as long as you want. Once the core is frozen, it's frozen.
can you make one out of water? ps. your awesome!
No. Water does not contain sugar!
the Slush Mug can make Redbull slushee?
Although we haven't tried it ourselves, we have had customers who tried it and said it worked well.
Some hotsauces have a high sugar content. Please tell me I can make a hot sauce slushie.
Neither Vat19 nor the manufacturer has attempted to make a hot sauce slushie. Yowzaaaaa!
Does water work? You said no diet beverages but what about water?
Water won't really slush well. It'll freeze, but it will be more like icy shards rather than soft slush.
Could you put in coffee from Starbucks?
If it has a LOT of sugar in it, sure! Sugar is the most important part of the slushing process; without it, you'll just end up with a cold drink.
Its not instant if you have to put it in the fridge for 6 hours. What if I want more than one cup of slush.
When you want ice cubes, do you make a whole new tray or do you make them ahead of time? Simply leave the GlacierCore in the freezer and it will always be ready to go. No one expects you to completely thaw it out and start over again each time you want a slush.
Can you make a lemonade slush using the slush mug?
If you've included an appropriate amount of sugar, yes.
I bought this and apparently this only works on cold drinks cause the first time i used it it was with a warm drink and it didnt work the second with a cold drink and it worked. Is this normal ?
Yes, actually it is. Obviously it's going to take more energy to bring a warm drink down to freezing than a drink that is already cold.
Do you have to stir in order to make the slush in the slush mug?
Stirring and scraping the inside of the Slush Mug is crucial to the slushing process.
Can i leave the core in the freezer for more than 6 hours?
Yes. In fact, we recommend leaving the Glacier Core in the freezer at all times so it's always ready to go.
Can you invent a multicolour slush mug?
We don't have any plans for new colors right now, but we'll definitely keep this one in mind!
Does limonade work? If so, do I use store brand (like the powder or already made). Or could I just use it homemade?
If has sugar in it, then yes.
I've noticed that the glaciercore seems to take alot of force to put in. Does this mean i have to pull like crazy to take out the glaciercore when im done eating?
Some fit very snugly, but even then they are not very difficult to pull out.
Does it work with Gatorade or powerade or peach tea?
Gatorade might not have enough sugar in it. The Slush Mug only works with naturally sweetened drinks.
If I were to leave the Glaciercore outside after 6 hours of refrigerating,how long will it last cold enough to make drinks into a Slushee outside?
Not terribly long. You should add a drink to Slush Mug pretty much right out of the freezer.
Um, would milk be kind of gross? Like too creamy and chunky?
You mean like a milkshake? Not at all.
How long until it will melt?
It depends on the ambient temperature where you're eating it, but you should have plenty of time to finish your slushee.
Why won't the slushee mug work with anything that doesnt contain sucrose?
Because the addition of sugar causes liquids to freeze differently and more quickly than those without it.
Is there different between like the "texture" of the slushee from the convenient store slushee? Like harder, colder, softer? Also, can you mix flavors?
Sure you can mix flavors. As for the texture, I would say that it's the same as what you'd get at the store since it's made basically the same way.
Is there anything else the slush mug can't slush and why can't it slush diet soda?
Only drinks that are naturally sweetened with sugar will slush. Diet sodas and other artificially sweetened drinks will not slush because the artificial sweetener does not freeze the same way as natural sugar. Also, any drinks with relatively high alcohol contents will not slush due to their very low freezing point.
See what if this did happen if the glacier core broke and the contents spilled out would they be poisonous?
The Glacier Core is very difficult to break. Even if you did somehow manage to crack it, the contents are non-toxic.
Can you make a slush out of root beer?
As long as it's not diet root beer, then yes.
I like supercooling my soft drinks. If I poured a soft drink in this and did not stir it, could I supercool it without forming a lot ice crystals?
As long as it kept it relatively still. Agitation and stirring will cause it to slush up.
Won't it taste bad if you use milk, though?
The Slush Mug won't alter the flavor of the milk, just the consistency. I think it's pretty good, personally!
if i put sugar into an un-sweetened drink, will the drink slush? (such as adding sugar to unsweetened tea)
That will work, but you need to make sure that the sugar is completely dissolved into the drink.
Can you make a slushee with Kool Aid?
Absolutely, as long as you've used sugar to make your Kool Aid.
I am planning to buy this as a gift for someone else in a different state than I am in. Is there any way that I can ship this to that person?
Yes, we are able to ship to an address which is different from the billing address.
How much drink should I put in?
As much as you like, but be careful not to overfill it. When the drink begins to slush up, there will be a bit of expansion.
What are some combos I can use? I have the slush mug but I lost the combo sheet.
Luckily for you, we have the sheet available on our site right here!
What is the consistency of the milk slushes? Is it a slush consistency or more of milkshake consistency?
It is more like a slush rather than smooth and creamy like a milkshake. Stirring more frequently will make it smoother.
could you make a grenadine and lemonade slushee with this?
Yes you could. Sounds delicious!
Try it with chocolate syrup, it is heavenly.
We're glad you're enjoying your slush mug!
do you ship world-wide?
Yep!
I would like a green Slush Mug! Please, can't the manufacturer add some colors?
Sorry, we don't have any plans to sell a green Slush Mug.
How many times i can use it?
As many times as you like. The Slush Mug can be frozen over and over again.
Where do you fill the drink to? In the video I saw you didn't fill it to the top.
There is a fill line on the inside of the mug. You can't see it in the video, but it's very clear when you actually have one.
Will gatorade work?
As long as it contains sugar, yes!
Can I use Choco milk? That would be awesome.
Yes, you are able to use chocolate milk. You can use any drink as long as it contains sugar.
Why does the drink have to have sugar in it to work?
The main reason why diet sodas will not slush is because artificial sweeteners do not crystallize properly when frozen.
One time I bought a different version of the slush mug, and it didnt work at all. How do I know this will work as well?
Because we don't need to prey on people's insomnia to get them to buy it. Imitators you see on late night TV are just that: imitations.
what happen if you combine the Jelly Belly soda and the Slush mug?
One heck of a delicious slushy!
If I put the slushie in the freeze for a bit will it turn into a Snow Cone?
No. A snow cone is shaved ice with flavored syrup poured over it.
Does the slush mug make the beverage feel like jello?
No, it makes it feel like a slushy. Imagine crushed ice.
Is it possible to drink just from the plastic mug? I thought this due to it's 'incomprehensible' shape.
It's possible but it's not easy or practical since it has an inward facing lip.
How heavy is the slush mug? Thanks.
The Slush Mug weighs 1 pound.
Can I use it twice before putting it back in the freezer for another six hours?
If you're fast you might be able to make a second slush.
Crab juice can be shushed, no?
No. Sugar is required for drinks to slush. Also, on a personal note, that is pretty disgusting sounding.
my favorite drink combination is red bull and mountain dew. Do you think red bull has enough sugar to actually thickin up. thanks
Without a doubt. Mt. Dew also has enough sugar.
Can you buy just buy the glaciercore?
I'm sorry, but we do not sell the GlacierCore separately.
Can i use your milk straws to drink this?
I don't see why not!
How much longer will it last then the average slush from a shop or cafe?
Probably about the same, though the GlacierCore might keep the slush colder longer.
Till what line do I fill the juice/soda to? I got mine yesterday and I see a line. I'm pretty sure that's the line for me to fill it up to. Am I correct? And it won't go all the way to the top. Should I be concerned?
Yes, the thin line you see on the inside of the Glaciercore (near the top of the core) is the fill line. You should fill only to the fill line, not to the top of the core.
would it be slushy if you used 100% orange juice with bits ? btw im a kid under 12 and i LOVE watching your advertising videos
By bits, do you mean pulp? Orange juice should slush up just fine.
Would it work if you put a lot of sugar in a diet soda?
Wouldn't that defeat the point of a diet soda?
What would happen if you did use a diet soda in the slush mug?
Nothing would happen since diet sodas do not slush.
how about kool-aid (not the tubs. i know they use artificial sweeteners in those. i mean the packets you make yourself)
As long as you make it with actual sugar, Kool-Aid works just fine.
So by far, is this your most popular product?
The Slush Mug is definitely one of our most popular items. Are you surprised? People love slushies!
Will the slush mug make powdered drinks and sunny d slushees?
The Slush Mug will slush almost any drink as long as it contains natural sugar. Sunny D has very little sugar in it, so I'm not sure if it would work very well.
What will happen if i put my gummy worm on a cold surface?
Putting the WLGW in the Slush Mug wouldn't accomplish much, but if you were to put it in the freezer it would certainly freeze.
Will it work better or differently with "throwback" soda that uses only real sugar?
Not at all. Natural sugar and high fructose corn syrup freeze pretty much exactly the same way.
Is there a cross-promo in this video? I'm trying to find all of them
The Slush Mug video doesn't have any cross-promos. Good luck finding the rest!
Do you think its a good idea to buy 2 slush mugs and buy a pack of strawz to combine slush flavors?
Sure! Order away!
Do we have to add water to Glaciercore then freeze it?
There is no need to add water. Simply freeze the Glacier Core, add your favorite sweetened drink, stir, and enjoy!
i brought my own and it doesn't work. got any tips?
First and foremost you must make sure that the drink has sugar and is not a diet drink. Artificial sweeteners will not work. Second, make sure you stir and scrape the inside of the GlacierCore to allow all of the liquid to come into contact with the GlacierCore.
If i put hot beverages on the slush mug it will make a normal slushee? And where is the ideal place to store the mug?
No, hot drinks will not slush. We generally recommend keeping your Glacier Core in the freezer at all times so it is always ready to go when you're in the mood for a Slushie.
Okay now I know this is nasty.... and Im pretty sure its going to be yes... but do you think it will work with pickle juice?
Pickle juice does not contain much sugar and probably will not slush.
Will Sprite work?
As long as it isn't diet, nearly any soda will work. Yes, that includes Sprite.
Will it work with italian cream sodas?
An Italian Cream Soda would probably work, depending on the recipe and whether or not the drink is naturally sweetened.
Will a drink that says "Naturally and Artificially flavored" work?
As long as it contains sugar, artificially flavored drinks will work.
If I want to make a tea slushie does the tea have to be cold or can it be hot?
The tea must be cold. Using hot tea will only thaw the GlacierCore.
What happens if I put honey in it.
It would probably make it even more delicious!
If I freeze it in the freezer then put it in a cooler for a couple of hours, will it still work?
As long as the cooler is able to maintain the temperature it shouldn't be a problem. If your cooler can be filled with ice, we'd suggest burying your Slush Mug in the ice.
Does it have to be six hours until it turns into a slushee?
The Glaciercore needs to be frozen solid before you can attempt to make a slushie. Usually this takes 6 hours in the freezer (sometimes longer, sometimes shorter). Once the Glaciercore is frozen and you pour in your drink, it only takes 6-8 minutes to make your slush.
Is BPA used in the slush mugs? If not, what is? Is it safe? Thanks
LDPE plastic is used in the Glaciercore. It is BPA-free and safe.
How full should you fill the cup if you want the slushy to fill the whole cup?
The included instruction sheet recommends filling to one inch from the top.
WUT IF U ADD SUGER TO WATER?!?!?!?!?!?! sry for caps
We haven't tried making a slushee with just sugar water, but we think it could work.
What comes in the package when you buy it??
The Slush Mug and a pamphlet with instructions and recipes.
Will you accept pre-paid visa's??
Yes.
Will it fit in the prank pack fake gift box?
The Slush Mug is just a little bit too big to fit perfectly in the Prank Pack. It will fit inside, but the box bulges out a little and would not be perfectly flat.
can you also make one with chocolate icecream?
Yes.
Can you put booze in it?
Yes, you can make alcoholic slushees as long as it contains sugar. For example, you can make a margarita slushee.
hmm , what happens if i keep it in the freezer for like 8-10 hrs?
If your freeze is set cold enough, the Glaciercore should get completely frozen solid, which is what you need to make a nice slushee.
Do sodas with high fructose corn syrup work, and also, is there a warranty?
Yes and yes, there is a lifetime manufacturer's warranty.
can you make a slushe with green tea
If the green tea contains natural sugar or you add sugar to the tea, then it should make a slushee.
Is the slush mug made of phalate free plastic?
The Slush Mug does not contain phthalates.
Neat concept. I don't see a lid, however. Does it come with one?
No, the Original Slush Mug does not come with a lid.
What would happen if you made a slushy in the blender and put it in the slush mug? (With the frozen core, of course.)
Nothing would happen at all. It would just remain a slushy.
A lot of people say it doesn't work. Could you name some possible reasons why?
The most common mistakes are overfilling, not being cold enough, or not using a drink with sugar. Not being cold enough seems to be the biggest issue, as most people don't normally set their freezers to -10F.
Why is sugar necessary for the slushing process?
Because sugar prevents the drink from freezing solid.
What is the glaciercore made of?
Plastic and a liquid refrigerant. The manufacturer does not disclose exactly what is in the refrigerant but it is completely non-toxic.
Does it work with energy drinks?
If they have sugar in them, then yes!
Can I make a slush with the orange juice which u make at home with only oranges ?
I don't see why not. You'd need a lot of oranges, though.
My apple juice is about 23g-27g of sugar, will it create a slush?
There is definitely enough sugar in pure apple juice to get a slush.
Would you fill your choice of beverage all the way to the top or is there a line you have to fill it to?
The Glacier Core has a fill line that you need to fill to. Going over it will prevent your drink from slushing properly.
If I put milk in, would it make a milkshake, or just the normal awesome slush.
Slushed milk is sort of like a milkshake but not exactly the same.
Can I leave it in the freezer when I'm not using it so I can pretty much make one any time?
Yes, absolutely!
Will this work with Arizona teas?
Only if they have sugar.
What do you think some of the the best drinks are?
Slushed Mt. Dew seems to be the office favorite. It's hard to top that!
Can i make an energy drink slushie?
As long as the drink contains sugar, you can make a slush out of just about any drink you like.
How long can you use it for
As many times as you like!
Could it work with coke zero or zero calorie drinks?
Coke Zero is a diet soda. It uses an artificial sweetener, so no.
Will there ever be a rainbow slush mug ?
We don't have plans for one at this time.
How much Liquid are you supposed to put in?
There's a fill line inside the mug which you are supposed to fill it up to.
I bought the slush mug but when I try to make slush it keeps freezing too much and it's hard to eat it when it has been in the cup for too long but it is too cold to be eaten any faster. What to do?
As long as you keep stirring the drink it will not freeze entirely. Ideally you will want sizable pieces of frozen drink.
Can you re-use the glacier-core more than once?
Absolutely. You can re-freeze the GlacierCore as many times as you like.
Is it dishwasher safe?
Maybe. It's best to hand wash the Glaciercore as some new dishwashers reach such high temperatures that they may deform the core.
Can I mix flavors like cola and cherry juice?
Yes. That sounds delicious!
In the video you used a Mocha Frap from Starbucks, did that work (turn to slushee)?
Yep! Pretty much any sweetened drink will work in the Slush Mug.
can you slush fanta
Shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure you don't use the sugar-free kind.
I looked up the details of the dishwasher I have. Apparently, it can reach a maximum temperature of 75 C. Would it be safe to put the mug in there?
That might be hot enough to deform the core. You should probably stick to hand-washing it just to be safe.
Will you guys ever put these commercials on tv?
Probably not. Television ads are expensive and nobody watches them anymore anyway.
Is it dishwasher safe?
Maybe. It's best to hand wash the Glaciercore as some new dishwashers reach such high temperatures that they may deform the core.
can you use just the plastic mug as a mug if youre waiting for your glaciercore to freeze?
Not really. The mug is really more of a holder for the Glacier Core and not really meant to be drank out of.
How much soda are you supposed to put in the Slush Mug?
There is a fill-line inside the mug that you should fill to.
Is it safe to put the Slush Mug together with other stuff in the freezer or does it need to be separately kept?
It's perfectly safe to keep your Slush Mug stored in the freezer with all the rest of your frozen foods.
Do you have to wash the plastic mug?
It's certainly a good idea. Soda and juice residue can get pretty disgusting if not cleaned out.
Does the slush mug work with Energy drinks? such as Monster, Red Bull etc.? and what about Organic energy drinks as well?
As long as the energy drink has sugar in it, which those do, the SlushMug will work.
Does it work with water ?
No. Water, unlike soda or juice, contains no natural sugars.
Q#1:I have these packets of crystal light that you mix with water and turns it into a flavored drink such as lemoade, fruit punch, raspberry,etc.. If I put the flavored water in the slush mug, would it still turn to slush. Q#2:Will kool-aid work?
Kool-Aid will definitely work, but Crystal Light might not contain enough sugar to slush properly.
Have you ever tried a milk slushee? If so does it taste any good?
They're very good! It's very similar to a milkshake.
Do you have to use the plastic cup in order to make the slushie work
The plastic cup simply gives you something to hold on to.
Can I make a margarita with this?
A margarita right now sounds pretty good! Yes, the Slush Mug can be used for margaritas.
what kind of drink would the slush mug make into ice faster because you know after waiting 6 hours you dont have alot of patience to wait until it freezes
To slush a drink it only takes 6 minutes, but you have to fully freeze the Slush Mug to do so. Just stick your Slush Mug in the freezer before you go to bed and it will be ready for you at any point the next day.
Would a whole milk slushy be gross?
If you like whole milk, it sounds perfectly reasonable that you'll also like a whole milk Slushy.
So, say I put an artificial sweetener in some water? Will it slush?
No, only naturally sweetened drinks will work.
I know that the drink you put in needs to have "natural sugar" in it to slush properly. But can it have high fructose corn syrup as most sodas have?
High fructose corn syrup is derived from a type of natural sugar, so yes, drinks such as Pepsi and Coca-Cola will work.
Why does the drink have to have sugar in order to crystalize?
Because sugar crystallizes in a very particular way when being frozen. The crystalline structure of the molecules in artificial sweeteners are too tight, and therefore form a really hard ice rather than a full-bodied slush consistency.
Does club soda even have natural sugar?
Club soda has no sugar in it, so slushing it is not possible.
For sports, can I use Gatorade to slush on hot dayss?
Yes, Gatorade will slush due to the amount of sugar it contains.
Could you make a fruit smoothie in the blender, and then place it in the SlushMug?
Yes, we think that will help keep your smoothie cold.
in the video, i saw tiny chunks of ice fly out when you put it in the mug. is this supposed to happen?
That was just some frost on the outside of the Glaciercore getting scrapped off as it was pushed down into the plastic outer shell. It's OK!
Is the slush mug an illegal beverage icer? I have heard of those and just wanted clarification?
We assure you that there is absolutely nothing illegal about the Slush Mug.
can you put chocolate milk in it?
Yes, and it's delicious!
can u slush fruit juices and drinks such as propel, gatorade and other sports drinks?
Yep, you sure can. As long as the drink contains natural sugar it should slush up nicely.
When I make a Slushie with this, it usually forms a hard ice around the outside and still just juice or soda. I can crush up the ice along the side with a grapefruit spoon and it gets kind of slushie, but is there any way I can avoid this?
When making your slushie, you need to scrape the sides of the core and stir it every 2-3 minutes.
How many times you can use the glacier core before u need to re-freeze it again? and plus, I am buying the Tyvek wallet and the rubiks cube clock. Thanks guys!!
Probably two. You can make one, pour it into a different cup, and then quickly make another one. You have to act quick because the Glaciercore needs to be completely frozen solid to work properly. Cool, thanks for shopping with us!
Could you slush a beverage that contains natural sugars instead of artificial sugars. I.e. Like if I make apple juice with my juicer - could I slush that?
Yes, the Slush Mug works best with beverages that have natural sugar.
dude um can you list some of the vat19 made ones or are your products ONLY retailersawesome
We only manufacture the DVDs and CDs.
How long will it take to make 8 slushies for 8 people?
We haven't tried to make 8 slushies in a row, so we aren't sure. You could make 2 in a row without refreezing the core, but you'd probably need to refreeze it after that. If you need to make that many at the same time, we suggest buying several Slush Mugs.
Why diet soda is not good to put there? If I put diet soda , What will happen? Can I put Sprite?
Beverages with natural sugar content work best, which diet soda does not have. Diet soda would not slush up as well as a regular soda. Yes, you can use Sprite.
Can you put yogurt in this and make "frozen yogurt"
The manufacturer said that yogurt will slush up, but we haven't tried it ourselves so we haven't seen the results first-hand.
So if I put the glacier core in the freezer for 6 hours, is it only a one time thing?
You can refreeze the Glaciercore over and over again. If you quickly pour out one slushee and pour in more of the beverage, you could get more than one slushee out of a single freezing. Also, it isn't going to take 6 hours to refreeze after you make a few slushees. In fact, it may only take 20-30 minutes to refreeze in order to make another batch.
Does it work with monster energy drinks???
We have not tried to make a slushee with Monster, so we can't say for sure how it would turn out.
does water or milk work with it
Water will not work since it does not contain sugar. Milk will work though!
Will it turn water icy?
Nope. Sugar is absolutely required for slushing.
Is it possible to mix sodas together in this to create a new slushy flavour?
As long as neither of the sodas are diet, sure.
Can I freeze the mug while the glacier core is inside of it?
Sure!
There's this soft drink called Ginger Ale, and it is slightly sweet. Will the Slush mug be able to "slush" that?
Ginger ale contains sugar, so yes.
Is there a lid available for extended warm weather use?
We're afraid not. Sorry!
I bought a slush mug and made a slushy but when I finished making it it wasn't overflowing out of the top like yours was in the slush mug video why is that?
Ours was significantly "fluffed up" by stirring upwards, effectively stacking the slush upon itself.
If you order from Singapore how long does it take to arrive?
The cost of shipping, as well as the estimated arrival time, will depend entirely on the shipping method you choose when you check out online. You can click the “Shipping Calculator” link near the top of the product page for shipping quotes.
Will it work with lesters food flavoured sodas,vintage sodas and jelly belly soda?
All of those sodas contain natural sugar, so yes!
Can we mix the flavour to make another flavour?
The only limit is your imagination! Just make sure that whatever drinks you use contain sugar.
What happens when you put the glacier core in the freezer for to long?
Nothing. In fact, we recommend storing the Glacier Core in the freezer all the time so that it's always ready to go when you want to make a slushy.
Does it have a cap or something?
Nope. A cap would just get in the way of you enjoying your slush!
Hold on a second, White Russian Slushee, Seriously?
Seriously. Just make sure to add the alcohol after you've slushed the half and half.
Is the Glaciercore is reliable, I want to make sure that the thing does not breaks easily
Absolutely! The GlacierCore can withstand hundreds of trips through the freezer.
will it still be able to make a slushi if its not quite solid it says its supost to be solid but i dont think my freezers goes cold enough...
If it's not cold enough then your Slush Mug will not make a proper slushy. Your freezer MUST be set to at least -10F.
How high am I supposed to fill it? I have one and its doesn't go as high as yours does in the video.
Only fill it to the fill line. When you stir it, stir upwards so that it "fluffs" the slushed drink.
Is the slush mug BPA-free ?and phthalate-free?
Yes. The Slush Mug is completely BPA/phthalate free.
This is an awesome product! Can I use any juice product for this Slushee Mug?
You can use anything you like as long as it contains natural sugar.
Is the glacier core reuse-able? like.... if we are done with one slushee... we can make more with the same glacier core. I just bought it and i didnt want it to be a one-time use. :)
If you're fast, you might be able to make a second slush in a single sitting. The Glacier Cores themselves will last indefinitely.
Is it possible that the slush mug may not work?
Only if you use it incorrectly!
Can I melt ice cream into a liquid then slush it?P.S i just bought it and i'm super excited!
Sure. That's essentially what a milkshake is.
Will you ever make more colors?
Possibly, but right now there are no plans for more colors.
Would it slush faster if you put the mug back in the freezer with the liquid inside?
Not really. The stirring is what makes the drink slush up, which you can't do if the Slush Mug is in the freezer.
If I were to blend ice cream with milk and chocolate and then pour it into the slush mug, would it turn it to slush?
Maybe! Why not order one and find out? That sounds delicious.
Can you leave the mug in with the Glaciercore when you put it in the freezer?
Yes, you can leave the entire mug and core in the freezer if you like.
how many glaciercore inserts do you get ?
Each Slush Mug contains one Glacier Core.
Is the Slush Mug (not the glacier core) dishwasher safe?
We recommend hand washing for the entire product. Dish washing machines can get ridiculously hot, so anything made of plastic could melt or warp.
is the slush mug halal?
It's a plastic cup, so you don't have to worry about eating it.
Does it honestly work? I don't think you guys would sell something that doesn't, but I saw a home-video testing something like it, and it didn't work very well.
The Slush Mug has been one of our most popular products for years and it works every bit as well as the video describes. Luckily, we're in a position to deny products that don't work well.
Is it BPA free?
Yes. The Slush Mug is completely BPA free.
does this work with sodas that use corn syrup and not sugar? I wonder since it says it doesn't work with diet sodas.
Yes, as corn syrup is a natural sugar. Most diet sodas use artificial sweeteners, such as aspartame, in lieu of sugar or corn syrup.
Do you ship to the U.K.?
We do!
Hello! So I am assuming you know the new Pepsi Next. I was wondering if the Slush Mug would turn this into Slush. The bottles say it has 30% less sugar in them. Thanks!
It might not work as well. As we've said, sugar is absolutely necessary for successful slushing.
Is this dish washer safe?
Maybe. It's best to hand wash the Glaciercore as some new dishwashers reach such high temperatures that they may deform the core.
I am confused. Can you put regular ice cream from a bowl into the slushe maker?
No. You need to add sweetened drinks, like juice or cola.
Can you make a fanta slushee ?
Shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure you don't use the sugar-free kind.
The slush mug has a lifetime warranty, so what happens if I have a slush mug and it gets messed up, how do I get it replaced? Also why can't you use diet soda?
The Slush Mug has a lifetime warranty against defects, not if you happen to damage it. Diet sodas contain artificial sweeteners which do not freeze the same as regular sugar.
Can it be used to make ice cream?
The Slush Mug isn't cold enough to make ice cream.
So, how many Glaciercores does one slush mug come with, because I see two in the freezer on the video?
Each Slush Mug comes with one core.
is it possible to make ice cream with the slushie mug?
Not really, but adding milk makes a drink that is pretty similar to a milkshake!
How much liquid can the glacier core hold? Metric please.
12 ounces, which is .35 liters.
About how many slush mugs would it take to fill a Das Beer Boot?
It would take 3-4 full Slush Mugs to fill Das Beer Boot.
Can we put diet soda but with more sugar?
We haven't tried but I believe that would be defeating the purpose of a diet soda in the first place. Don't forget also that diet sodas are sweetened, simply with a chemical rather than a sugar. I do not know how well one can add sugar to that mix.
Can I use melted gummy/gummi Bears?
No. By the time the gummy was cool enough to be slushed it would simply re-solidify.
Is it safe to wash it with warm water and soap after use?
Yes, it is safe to clean the Slush Mug immediately after use.
What is a White Russian? Milk with alcohol?
A White Russian (my favorite, by the way) is made with Kahlua, vodka, cream and ice. You can use milk instead of cream, but it's not nearly as good.
Do you ship to Canada?
Yes, we ship to Canada. All of the countries we offer shipping to can be found here.
Why can't you put in diet drinks?
Diet sodas and other artificially sweetened drinks will not slush because the artificial sweetener does not freeze the same way as natural sugar.
Beer slushee?
We've had mixed reports of beer slushies. If the beer has a relatively low alcohol content it might work, but we cannot guarantee it.
What happens when you put diet soda in it?
Nothing happens, and that is the problem. Artificial sweeteners do not freeze the same way as drinks which are naturally sweetened with sugar.
Can I put hot chocolate and will it work?
Hot drinks such as coffee and hot chocolate cannot be slushed.
If I add soda will it loose its fizz?
Soda will retain its carbonation even if it has been slushed.
Is it kid-friendly?
The Slush Mug is very kid-friendly.
Will something happen to the slush mug if i leave it in the freezer to long?
Not at all. In fact, we recommend keeping the Slush Mug stored in the freezer so it is ready to go when you want a slushie.
Can it make beer a slushie?
We've had mixed results with beer slushies. Lower alcohol beers might work, but high alcohol imports will not be as successful.
What if I used water with sugar?
It's definitely worth a shot! A can of soda, which is 12 ounces, usually has about 39 grams of sugar in it. That seems like a pretty good amount to start experimenting with.
Will it work with homemade lemon or lime juice?
Juice should work, but you might want to add a little sugar to your juice to better facilitate the slushing process.
Mine doesnt turn out the one in the video theres only a little ice but its all watery
Make sure that your drink is sweetened with natural sugar. You will also want to scrape the sides of the GlacierCore occasionally to allow the rest of the liquid to come into contact with the GlacierCore.
in the video it looks difficult to put the Glaciercore into the insulated mug. Is hard to put the core in the mug?
Nope, you just push it down. The mug securely holds the core, so it does fit snugly.
will it work if i put chicken noodle soup in it??
Milk products work well in the Slush Mug, so cream-based soups could maybe slush up, but I'm not sure about chicken noodle. I'm also not sure why you'd want cold, slushy soup.
Does this mean I can have slushee chocolate milk? How would that turn out? PS LOVE YOU GUYS!
Yep, you sure can. It would turn out delicious - a chocolate milk slushie!
what happens if you try to slushie a diet soda? can you make a video?
Diet sodas can slush, just not as well as regular sodas. Although we don't have plans to make an additional video for the Slush Mug, we'll keep this in mind if we ever do!
I watch your videos on youtube and some of the products are no longer for sale. So my question is will this product be taken down soon? I just don't want to come back and find you don't sell it anymore.
We do not have any plans to stop selling the Slush Mug in the foreseeable future. It's been around for a long time and we don't expect it to leave anytime soon.
Does the drink HAVE to have sugar in it to work? How bout if I put in water or unsweetened tea?
Water will not slush. The drink needs to have sugar to slush up properly. We have not tried unsweetened tea.
In the video it shows that you can put Frappachino in it, also it said that it doesn't work without sugar.. does Frappachino have sugar in it?
Yes, regular Frappuccinos have sugar. A lot, actually.
How fast do you ship?
Orders that are placed before 2pm CST ship out the same day (excluding weekends and holidays).
A Sunkist flavored slushie!? What could possibly rock more?! (well, maybe vat19, but still!)
Sunkist slushies are awesome! Making it quickly at home makes it even more awesome!
so can you only use the Glaciercore once?
No, the Glaciercore can be refrozen and used over and over again.
Can you make slushies from lemonade? I'm so excited cuz I'm getting this in TOMORROW!! :D
Yes, and they are delicious!
Will it work with milk? Cause I love milk...
Yes, you can make a milk slushee. That's a pretty fun way to get your calcium!
In the picture, why is it that the blue one appears more slender than the red? Is it just camera angle, or are they actually like that?
All Slush Mugs are the exact same size and shape. The mugs were photographed at slightly different angles.
Does the Slush Mug work by using a supercooling-like process.
The Glaciercore is what makes the Slush Mug work so well. It contains a super-freezing and non-toxic refrigerant. Once frozen, this refrigerant is able to magically turn your drink into a delicious slushee!
Why does it have to have sugar?
The presence of sugar changes the way the liquid freezes. Rather than becoming solid, it becomes a slush.
Will this slushify energy drinks (ie Red Bull)?
They can if the sugar content is high enough. That's the big deciding factor.
How many gram of this?
16 ounces (453.6 grams).
Can I use root beer from the mr root beer kit to make my slushee?
Sure!
I bought one, but my freezer won't go below -6F. Will it more or less work?
Maybe, but we can make no guarantees. The manufacturer recommends at least -10F.
can you turn melted ice cream into a slush?
Not really, no. You'll just have cold melted cream.
I have a slush mug and I use it occasionally. However, whenever I put orange juice or soda into it, it takes me 30 minutes to get to where I want it to be, and thats with stirring it every few minutes. Am I doing something wrong.
No, but your freezer might not be as cold as needs to be. Make sure that your freezer is set to at least -10F.
Would tea with a teaspoon of sugar work?
Only if it's ice tea. Hot beverages obviously will not slush.
Well I love Diet Black Cherry Pop. that is why I want to buy the Shushy mug, what will happen to the diet pop if I put it in the mug anyway?
Nothing will happen, which is the big problem. Artificial sweeteners do not freeze the same way as natural sugars such as cane sugar and corn syrup. Diet sodas simply do not work.
I've tried using this thing on gatorade but it dosent work! why?!
Does Gatorade have as much sugar as fruit juice or soda? You should also check to make sure that your freezer is set to at least -10F.
I heard that there was a limit line to pour your drink in. How come you guys filled it to the top?
We didn't. When liquid freezes it expands, especially if it's slushy.
How cold does your freezer have to be?
The freezer must be set to at least -10F.
Could you also use the mug part as just like a cup and put juice or hot chocolate in it??
No. The mug portion has an edge that is not very conducive to drinking.
Can you slush lesters food drinks?
Sure! You can slush any drink that contains sugar, including sodas.
Couldn't you just put a random drink in a cup, put it in the freezer and stir every once and a while ?
It would need to be in constant motion, in which case it would just be a slushy machine. So to answer your question, no, that wouldn't work because you'd have to be stirring it for several hours as opposed to several minutes.
Is it disgusting when a coffee become slush?
Not at all. Surely you've heard of iced coffee and frappucinos before.
Can you make multiple slushies with one freeze?
If you're fast, you might be able to make a second slush in a single sitting.
Would Monster energy drink work?
We haven't tested it, but judging by the large amount of sugar in Monster Energy Drink, we're pretty confident that it will slush.
How many servings does each make? (Or how long they last)
If you're fast, you might be able to make a second slush in a single sitting. The Glacier Cores themselves will last indefinitely.
Does vat19 make this or not?
We're a retailer, not a manufacturer.
How high should I fill my drink in the Slush Mug? I see that you guys filled yours almost to the top.
There's a fill line which is about an inch and a half from the rim of the Glacier Core. Going beyond that line might not allow the drink to slush properly.
In the slush mug video it seems when you were putting in the Glacier core it took a bit of work my question is how hard is it to take out of the mug?
Not very. It's a snug fit, but it's not so tight as to be a problem removing the Glacier Core.
Can the slush turn in to ice ????????
Slush basically is ice. If you were to put it back in the freezer I'm sure it would definitely harden.
Do these things melt when in impact with hot weather?
No, but excessively hot water may cause the plastic to deform.
My sister put the slush mug inner core into the dishwasher. Is it still useable? Please answer quickly!
Yes, as long as the GlacierCore is not leaking or deformed
Can you also put in powdered juice?
As long as it has sugar, then yes.
Can you freeze flat drinks such as chilled cappucinos, ice teas, etc? Im really interested in buying one but I wanna know if im getting my money's worth
Sugar is what is essential to slushing, not carbonation. If a drink has sugar in it, odds are that it will slush.
How much liquid should you put?
Until you reach the fill line inside the Glacier Core.
Can you use apple cider?
That should work, unless it's hard apple cider. Liquor reduces the freezing point of other beverages.
Should anything happen to the glaciercore, does it have a warranty?
The GlacierCores are pretty sturdy, so I don't think it will be an issue. However, if something should happen, the manufacturer backs the Slush Mug with a lifetime warranty.
Is it possible that the glaciercore can break?
The Glacier Core will not break if handled properly.
Why can't we use diet slushees?
Because the artificial sweetener prevents the drink from freezing properly.
Why won't diet sodas turn into slush?
Natural sugar is needed to slush properly.
What happens when you leave the Glaciercore in the freezer for more than 6 hours?
Nothing at all. In fact, we recommend leaving the Glacier Core in the freezer at all times so it's always ready to go.
Can you make a slushie, eat it within 5-10 minutes then straight away pour more drink into the core and slush up again without freezing? Is this possible? Works really well with pepsi by the way!
If you're quick, you might be able to get a second slush out of the Slush Mug. Still, even if you have to refreeze the Glacier Core, it shouldn't take the full 6 hours to refreeze if it is still pretty cold.
when you say it can hold 12 ounces does that mean all the way to the top or up until the glacier core stops?
It means it has a full capacity of 12 ounces. Don't forget that slushes will expand in the Glacier Core.
What if I were to blend the WLGB, refrigerate it, and then slush that?
I can't guarantee it would work since blended gummy is pretty darn thick.
What if you mixed this with a soda with High-Fructose Corn Syrup.
High fructose corn syrup is a type of natural sugar and, as far as I know, is the most commonly used sweetener.
Cam i make a monster flavored slushie?
We haven't tested it, but judging by the large amount of sugar in Monster Energy Drink, we're pretty confident that it will slush.
Is this better than the Slushy magic? I bought that and i was very disappointed. For it makes little amount of slushee. I am hoping to buy this, Its very cheap, I got the slushy magic for 20.00, and this is 10.00!
It's infinitely better. Like I've said before, the Slush Mug does not require any shaking, which makes slushing sodas a lot less messy.
How is it possible to slush coffee? As far as i know coffee doesn't contain any sugar.
Not naturally, but coffee can be sweetened with sugar. If your coffee has been sweetened (and appropriately chilled) it can be slushed with the Slush Mug.
I've never tried a slushee before. What does it taste like? Does it only sell in the US? I've never heard of it in Singapore-or is it the Slurpee that replaces 'slushee' in Singapore?
We do offer shipping to Singapore. A slushee is basically a frozen drink that can be eaten with a straw or a spoon. The closest thing I can compare it to is shaved ice, though shaved ice is usually made by flavoring ice with a syrup.
Hey Vat 19, I froze my insert for 12 hrs and tried mountain dew throwback (real sugar) and it did not work...is it the drink or the insert? Thanks.
It could be the freezer. Assuming you're stirring the drink properly, if you freezer isn't set to -10 Fahrenheit, it may take longer for the Glacier Core to become cold enough, if it all.
Does it work with Caprisun?
While Capri Sun does have sugar, it's about 1/3 the amount as soda, so it might not slush as quickly or as well.
What happens if you use diet soda?
Nothing happens, and that is the problem. Artificial sweeteners do not freeze the same way as drinks which are naturally sweetened with sugar.
Do you ship to Basque Country? :)
There shouldn't be any problem shipping to Basque Country, just make sure you choose Spain as your country at the checkout screen.
Im looking forward to getting this but can you put Red diamond ice tea in it?
As long as it's sweetened with natural sugar, then yes.
How is it packaged?
The Slush Mug will be sent to you in a very handsome cardboard box, complete with instructions and an invoice which you can save as a memento.
What would happen if you left the glacier core in the freezer for longer than 6 hours? Would it keep your slushy cold longer?
It won't keep your slushy cold longer, but it will keep you from needing to wait a full 6 hours any time you want a slushy. We generally recommend keeping it in the freezer at all times so the Slush Mug will always be ready to go.
is hi-c ok?
Hi-C should work fine since it is naturally sweetened.
Can you drink the slushees rather than eating them?
Go for it! Just be careful of brain freezes.
Can you make a milkshake with this.
You can definitely create a milkshake-like drink with the Slush Mug. One customer added Oreos and said it was amazing.
If i were to melt gummy bears would they make an over exaggeratedley awesome slushy?
Probably not since one they finally cooled enough to the point that you could slush them it would become a solid again.
I know this may be a stupid question, but are all prices USD and the calculate shipping price is it converted to the currency value our country is in or is it in USD?
All of our prices are in USD. When you make your purchase on our website, your bank or credit card company will make the necessary conversion to your currency.
Is the Slush Mug very durable?
It's durable enough! Obviously if you started throwing it at a wall or jumping on it, it will break, but with normal use you shouldn't have any problems with durability.
Can you just put a regular cup in a freezer, take it out, and then pour soda in there to make a slush?
No, that will not work.
In the video it says no artifaially sweeted drinks. So if I make Kool aid with splenda will it work?
You may need to add a small amount of sugar to the Splenda and Kool Aid mix in order for it to slush properly.
Can I use Dr Pepper in the thingy.
Yes, as long as it isn't diet.
Can you slush milk then drink the milk-slush with the magic milk straws? I haven't bought either yet, but it sounds kinda good.
You sure can! That actually sounds pretty delicious, if you ask me.
This...is...AWESOME. Anyway, I placed my order, but i'm wondering, what kind of box does it come in? I've heard that slush mugs don't come in a box.
We package them in small boxes for shipment, but SlushMugs do not have their own designer box.
Couldn't you just use frozen blocks of the juice instead of ice cubes?
Sometimes. Because of the sugar content of fruit juices and sodas, they don't tend to really freeze into solid cubes very well. Besides, in even less time you could simply make a slushed drink in the SlushMug!
Is the reason diet drinks don't work because they have artificial sweeteners or because they have no sugar?
Both. Artificial sweeteners do not crystallize like sugar when being frozen, and sugar is essential for a drink to slush up.
How do you take the glacier core out of the cup after using it?
The GlacierCore can be pulled out. It can be a snug fit though, so you may have to put some muscle into it.
You showed an orange slushee mug in the comercial did you ever sell one like that?
Sorry, but the Slush Mug is only available in red, blue and purple.
How much sugar would it take for pure/filtered water to crystallize? (Yeah, I don't like meh drinks healthy. xP)
It depends on the size of the glass. A can of soda, which is 12 ounces, usually has about 39 grams of sugar in it. That seems like a pretty good amount to start experimenting with.
What temperature should it be before when it's in the freezer? If you change the freezer temperature more colder would it work like that? Also I really love your products they are so cool!
Your freezer should be -10° Fahrenheit or colder.
how many glacier cores do you get with each mug?
You get one Glaciercore.
Will this work with flavored iced tea (Raspberry, peach, lemon)? This is going to be my first purchase.
Sounds delicious! The Slush Mug will work just fine as long as your flavored teas are naturally sweetened with sugar.
Will mixed (non-diet) sodas/drinks work in it?
So long as there aren't any ingredients that dramatically alter the freezing point of the drink (such as alcohol) it should work just fine!
how long do they last before they break, and can you get a new one if yours breaks one of the first times you use it?
You can reuse the Slush Mug indefinitely. It has a lifetime manufacturer's guarantee. So no worries!
If I use a flavor packet on some water and then pour it into the cup would it still freeze or would it be like the diet soda?
If there is natural sugar in the flavor packet, then it should slush.
What happens when if you order and you live inside a apartment?
That is not a problem. It is at the discretion of the delivery person, but they might deliver it to the apartment complex's office, leave it at your door, or leave a notice that they attempted to make a delivery.
can you make a coffee slush with this? :D
You sure can. Enjoy!
Is this thing really made in the USA? I support the USA and will buy anything, ANYTHING that is made in the USA, if it is the right price, and this is!
Yes! All parts of the Slush Mug are made in the USA.
Do you sell replacement core inserts for Slushy Mugs???? We need extras!
I'm sorry, but we do not have replacement cores available for purchase.
will it work if my freezer is high twenties?
The manufacturer recommends -10° Fahrenheit or colder.
I got a slush mug (if you look over orders i ordered blue strawz and a blue slush mug) my core is around 19 Degrees Farenheit. What temperature does it need to be to make a good slush consistincy.(in Farenheit btw)
The Glaciercore simply needs to be frozen solid. If it is squishy at all, keep it in the freezer until it's hard as a rock (like ice).
Could I add sugar to make a beverage crystalize better? PS, you rock!
We have not tried that, so we can't say how well that would work. It seems like that should work though.
Will this work with vitaminwater?
If it contains natural sugar it should slush up.
Can you pour in multiple drinks a one time?
If you want to make a mixed slushee, we say go for it!
I bought one and now I am a happy man
Always good to hear.
Will it work with protein powder or protein shakes? If your protein shake contains fruit (which have sugar) will it work?
Although we have not tried it with protein shakes, we think if you added fruit it would work.
Does the carbonation in soda affect its ability to form slush?
Nope, soda will slush up wonderfully.
If it doesn't work, can I send it back?
If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, you can return it within 30 days for a refund. Please see our return policy here.
Is the plastic toxic? And does the two thing break easily?
The Slush Mug is non-toxic. With normal use, both pieces of the Slush Mug would not break easily.
Can you add the liquid into the Slushie mug and put back into freezer for an extra italian ice freeze slushie ?
You could, but you'd have to watch it so it doesn't freeze solid.
YEAH PURPLE!!!!! I love you guys.
Yay!
Will this be made available in the UK anytime soon?
We're not sure of a brick-and-mortar store in the UK that carries the Original Slush Mug, but we do ship worldwide, so we can certainly get one to you!
If you melted down one of your gummy bears and let it cool then could you turn it into a slushie?
That wouldn't be possible. If the gummy is hot enough to melt it's also hot enough to thaw the GlacierCore. Even if it DID work the only thing that would happen is the gummy becoming solid again.
Will this work with beer or other types of alcoholic beverages?
No. Alcohol has a much lower freezing temperature than sugar water. This is why you can stick a bottle of whiskey or vodka in the freezer and it will never become solid.
Can it make ice cream?
Nope. The Slush Mug isn't nearly cold enough to make ice cream.
if ill put milk in the slush mug will it be "watery"?
Not if your Slush Mug is adequately cold.
Why are diet sodas not allowed?
Sugar is required for the slushing process to work.
Could it make a slushy out of milk?
Yes!
I'm going to use this at my school for lunch. If I froze it before I slept (at 9 or 10 PM) and packed it at 8 AM, went to school and at 12:21 PM I made a slushie would it work?
No. There's no way your Slush Mug would remain cold enough to make a slushy after being out of the freezer for four and a half hours.
How much slushy does it make?
That depends on how much drink you fill it with.
Can you put the instrocens on the page just in case we lose them?
They already are. There's a link at the top of the page in the "Features and Specs" section.
Does the ice ever run out?
No, but it will need to be refrozen after each use.
Does the item come with a lid?
The Slush Mug does not come with a lid.
You indicate lifetime guarantee. What exactly is the guarantee policy? What is the return policy if the product doesn't meet expectations?
It's a lifetime guarantee against defects, not satisfaction. If a product arrives damaged or defective, or becomes damaged through normal use, you will be entitled to a replacement. If you simply don't like something you will have to send it back to us within 30 days, at which time we will issue a refund for the product but not for the shipping.
Will it work if the drink has cane sugar like jones soda or blue sky?
Yep! Natural sugars will work fine. As we state in the description, it's only artificial sweeteners which will not work.
What if you freeze the glacier core longer than 6 hours? Some people don't have time to check back in 6 hours, but maybe 8 or 10, or even longer.
Actually, we recommend leaving it in the freezer all the time so that it's always ready to go.
Can I use the Vintage Sodas? (Cross-Promo!)
Yes you can! You can use anything that has sugar or high fructose corn syrup in it.
Will it work with Chocolate milk? I know some of the recipes call for regular or skim milk and say to add choco powder (or whatever) but will Chocolate Milk straight from carton work?
Yes, even chocolate milk will work.
How delish are the slushies?
Very delish!
Do you have to shake it?
Nope. You're thinking of a different and inferior product.
What will happen if you combine jelly belly soda with the Slush Mug ?
Jelly Belly Slushies!
I only get back spasms after eating cold things too fast, and the video did not advertise this point. Will I only receive brain freezes with the Slush Mug, or can it provide my usual form of pain?
We're not your doctor, so we can't answer that for you. Sorry!
Can you put beer inside the slush mug?
We've heard mixed reports of it working with low-alcohol content beers, but generally speaking we would have to say no.
How long will it freeze before it melts?
That really depends on how warm the air around it is, so there's no meaningful answer I can give you.
Do you ship to canada?
Yes, we ship internationally.
Does the plastic contain BPA?
No. The Slush Mug is completely BPA/phthalate free.
What is most likely to not turn into a slushy?
Diet sodas, alcoholic drinks, and so on. We actually cover a lot of that on the product page.
if I put sugar into beer or none sugary drinks would it work?
Why not just buy a sweetened drink in the first place? As for adding it to beer, not only would it probably not work well, but it also wouldn't taste very good either.
You said water won't work. What if I mixed something with sugar in it with the water first, then poured it in, then would it work?
That would be sugar water, not just water, so the answer is yes. Any drink that has a fair amount of sugar in it will slush.
i know not to use diet cola, but if I use another fizzy drink like fanta or lemonade, will i get a fizzy slushee or will i get a slushee the same taste but flat?
There's not really a lot of gray area to work with. Either a drink will slush (as a result of containing sugar) or it will not. As for the carbonation, yes it's possible for it to retain some of it.
Would it be good to put whisky stones in it to make the effect of how long it stays cool longer?
Whiskey Stones would not have any measurable effect on the Slush Mug.
How much will this cost n the uk and were do i check???
Currency exchange rates change daily, so you can check Google for those figures. When you place an order the correct amount will automatically be debited from your account.
Does it work with Vodka my friend wants to know?
Vodka doesn't freeze, so no.
So if you wanted to have another slushie out of the Slush Mug right after you finished a full cup,you would have to wait 6 hours?
You could make a second slushee if you quickly make the first one and then pour it out and immediately make the next one. Remember, the core needs to be frozen solid to work properly. It shouldn't take 6 hours to bring it back to freezing since its already cold.
can you mix drinks to make a mixed slushy?
As long as both drinks have sugar, sure!
does it work with mio
I sincerely doubt it. Drinks need to have a fair amount of sugar in them to slush properly.
So is there different sizes?
The Slush Mug is only available in one size.
What if you added sugar to an artificially sweetened drink, would that work?
Maybe, but it would also sort of defeat the point of an artificially sweetened drink (AKA diet drink).
Does the slush mug work with energy drinks like gatorade or powerade?
Gatorade might not have enough sugar in it. The Slush Mug only works with naturally sweetened drinks.
I found the wait and stir method to be lacking, so I just put the drink into the glacier core and freeze it again for 10 minutes. Will this method make the slushie lack in flavor, or damage the glacier core?
Not at all. You may also want to make sure that your freezer is set to -10F.
What is the height and radius of the glaciercore? I don't know if it would fit in my freezer.
It's 5.5" tall and 6" wide (including the handle).
Can the outer plastic mug also be used to hold beverages while the Glaciercore is in the freezer?
The outer "mug" doesn't make a very good mug, actually. It's more of a holder specifically for the glacier core.
how long does it last?
With proper care the GlacierCore will last indefinitely.
Can i freeze it with ice cubes?
Putting the Glaciercore in ice cubes might not get the core frozen solid. The core needs to be completely frozen to work properly.
If you use soda for the slushie will it stay fizzy or become flat?
The soda slushee will still taste like a delicious soda. It does not make the soda taste flat.
milk slushee? sounds gross!
It's not too terribly different from a milkshake.
If I were sincerely attached to slushing a diet drink, could I add a small amount of sugar to the beverage first and make a successful slushie?
That would not only defeat the purpose of a diet soda, but simply adding sugar doesn't necessarily mean that it will work either. You'd need to add a significant amount of sugar and make sure that it's been properly absorbed by the drink.
How long would it take to make a tea slushee, as it starts off hot (as opposed to a coke sitting in the fridge)?
It's impossible to slush hot drinks in the Slush Mug. The hot drink would thaw the Glacier Core.
Is it OK if I leave the Glaciercore in the freezer for over 6 hours or even a day or more? Will the slushee still be awesome?
It may not affect your slushy, but leaving your GlacierCore in the freezer at all times ensures that it is always ready to go when you want a slushy.
Can you drink the slushies from a straw or do you have to use a spoon?
Spoon, straw, or heck, pour it straight into your mouth. Just watch out for brain freeze!
it's a little sketchy how you are all secretive on the chemical in the glaciercore. can you clarify?
We don't even know how our manufacturer makes the Glaciercore! We don't think protecting your invention is sketchy.
If you put snow cone syrup in the mug, wouldn't that just make an awesomer version of a snow cone? Less watered down and all?
Probably not. Snow cones are simply cups of shaved ice with flavored syrup on them. A slushy is actually a type of frozen drink.
If you put milk in the mug, will it become slushy like other drinks, or will it do something different.
Milk will slush up. It's actually very similar to milkshake.
What makes a drink that has artificial sugar in it (like diet sodas) not work with this?
Diet sodas contain artificial sweeteners which do not crystallize the same way as naturally sweetened drinks.
If I somehow lose the mug, can I use another mug to hold the glacier core, or will it not have the same effect? Just wondering.
I suppose you could, but the mug is pretty large and difficult to lose.
I made a Monster Slushie, and then i made a redbull one with vodka,it didnt work for redbull with vodka Why?
Because vodka has an incredibly low freezing temperature, much lower than what can be reached with a conventional freezer. This makes it un-slushable.
My sweetener of choice is Stevia. a plant with small green leaves said to be 300 times sweeter than sugar. I buy pure stevia in bulk powder form. There is no other "booster" sweetner added. Will the Slush Mug work?
Neither Vat19 nor the manufacturer have tried to make a slushie using Stevia, so we can't say how that would work out.
Is it available in Saudi Arabia?
Yes, we do offer shipping to Saudi Arabia as well as over 70 different countries worldwide.
Wait you can use regular soda and not diet? Why?
Diet sodas and other artificially sweetened drinks will not slush because the artificial sweetener does not freeze the same way as natural sugar.
Could it do a water slushee?
A water slushee wouldn't work because you need sugar for it to slush properly.
My freezer only goes to -6 degrees, will it still work?
That should still work, though you might need to let your Slush Mug freeze for a little longer.
if you are trying to make a non-sweetened drink slushable with sugar,is it possible to add to much sugar?
It could be. It is possible for you to add so much sugar that the drink cannot contain all of it.
why can't we put diet soda? If we do, will it taste bad?
Nothing happens, and that is the problem. Artificial sweeteners do not freeze the same way as drinks which are naturally sweetened with sugar.
What if I freeze more than 6 hours? Will it break or something?
Nope! In fact, we recommend keeping the GlacierCore in the freezer all the time so it's ready to go when you want a slushed drink.
Can you freeze beer ?
We've heard mixed reports of it working with low-alcohol content beers, but generally speaking we would have to say no.
Can rose syrup turn into slush?
Probably not on its own, but maybe when added to another drink.
Will it work with wine or beer?
The alcohol content of wine will prevent proper slushing. As for beer, we've heard mixed reports of it working with low-alcohol content beers, but generally speaking we would have to say no.
Does this have any chemicals that could harm someone over a period of time?
None whatsoever. The Slush Mug is perfectly safe and completely non-toxic.
When you finally finish your drink in the slush mug and the core is still cold, is it possible to put the drink inside again, and it will still freeze and turn it into slush?
If you're quick, you might be able to get a second slush out of the Slush Mug. Still, even if you have to refreeze the Glacier Core, it shouldn't take the full 6 hours to refreeze if it is still pretty cold.
Will it work with gatorade
Gatorade should work as long as it is a sweetened version.
Can it be shipped to Singapore?
Yes, we are able to ship to Singapore.
When you put the glaciercore in it when its frozen will it be hard to put in the mug?
It's a snug fit but I wouldn't say it's very difficult.
We are in winter as you you know ,so ive been keeping the GlacierCore out of the freezer will it go bad??
Not at all. You may store your GlacierCore either in the freezer or in the cupboard. There is no need to keep it cold all the time.
Why didn't you advertise the purple slush mug???
Because the purple Slush Mug was not yet available when we made the commercial.
So could i just use the mug?
Not for making slushies. The mug really just acts as an insulator as well as a way to hold it.
Can I store my glaciercore in the freezing when I'm not using it or will it be ruined by extensive freezing?
Actually, we recommend keeping the GlacierCore in the freezer so it's ready to go whenever you want a slushed drink.
How many glaciercores do you get with one set?
Each order contains one (1) GlacierCore.
I hear you cant put coffe in it...but what I cooled my coffe down till room temp add a ton of sugar(like usal)will it work????I love caffine
If the coffee is sweetened and chilled, you would be perfectly able to make a coffee slushy.
Were can I see when my packege is coming to me?

Will it work with brisk?
As long as it's naturally sweetened, sure!
Does DR. Pepper work?
As long as it's not Diet Dr. Pepper, then yes.
If I were to mix coke and water together, then try to make a slushie, would that work? I know it sounds sort of gross, but I'm just using coke as an example.
As long as the drink has sugar in it, it should work. And you're right, that does sound gross.
Why isnt it recomended to put diet soda ? P.D. I am diabetic
Because diet sodas contain artificial sweeteners which do not freeze the same way as drinks that are sweetened with natural sugars.
Will "lipton green tea citrus" work with the slush mug
As long as it's sweetened with natural sugar, then yes it will.
Can you keep the Glacier Core in the freezer most the time ( just in case you decided to make a slushie) ?
You sure can! In fact, that's actually what we recommend.
When the glaciercore is freezed for 6 hours and placed in the plastic mug, will the plastic mug crack?
The plastic mug will not crack when you reinsert the Glacier Core.
Can this be delivered to Hong Kong Asia in less than 1 and a half a week? Because I need it for a early Christmas present.
Yes, it is possible, though you may want to opt for a faster (albeit slightly pricier) shipping option. Shipping costs and times vary depending on the method chosen at checkout. For an estimate, simply click the "Calculate Shipping" link above the green "Add to Cart" button on any product page.
I am really scared to buy it because I'm afraid it won't work... do you have any online proof??
The proof, really, is in the video. Believe me, we wouldn't be able to stay in business very long if we sold products that don't work.
I've heard dat companies sell your stuff, passing it off as their own-well, on a commercial, I saw Air Swimmers for someone elses company. Explain plz.
We're a retailer, not a manufacturer. It's entirely likely that you might see some of the same products we carry elsewhere, just like how you might see the same item from Wal-Mart at Best Buy.
If I'm having a hard time removing the glaciercore, would it be okay for me to run it under warm - hot water for a little while to help remove it easier.
A little warm water would be perfectly fine.
Can this slush wine?
The alcohol content of wine will prevent proper slushing.
Will it work with ice tea?
As long as the ice tea is naturally sweetened, we don't see why not!
3 questions. Q1: Why can't you use diet soda? Q2: Do you ship to the uk? Q3: Not being a killjoy, but can't you just freeze your favourite drink then blend it? p.s i <3 vat 19 x
Diet sodas don't work because sugar is essential to the slushing process and diet sodas possess none. Yes, we do offer shipping to the UK. Freezing a drink and blending it doesn't always work, especially with syrup based sodas. When frozen, the syrup tends to separate from the carbonated water which just makes a gooey mess.
