Slushies, But Make Them Flavoured

Whether it’s a backyard party, café special, or summer self-care moment, a flavoured slushie hits different. And while classic blue raspberry might be nostalgic, we think it’s time to upgrade your ice game.

With Cashmere Syrups, you can create smooth, icy, flavour-packed slushies in just minutes, no artificial aftertaste, no complicated prep. Just real flavour, made for sipping.

Why Our Syrups Work So Well in Slushies

Cashmere Syrups are concentrated, high-quality, and designed to blend seamlessly with water and ice.

Here’s why they’re perfect for slushie machines:

  • Bold flavours: They shine through ice dilution.
  • Consistent texture: No stickiness or separation.
  • Endless combos: Mix and match flavours for layered drinks.
  • Versatile format: Works in home or commercial machines.

Best Syrup Flavours for Slushies

Here are our go-to picks for slushie success:

  • Watermelon Sunrise Syrup: Light, fresh, and perfectly summery.
  • Peach Iced Tea Concentrate: Think café-style tea, but frozen.
  • Strawberry Syrup: Sweet and fruity — a total crowd-pleaser.
  • Passionfruit Syrup: Exotic, vibrant, and made for sunny days.
  • Caramel or Vanilla: Unexpected? Yes. Delicious? Also yes — especially with a cream slush base.

How to Use Our Syrups in a Slushie Machine

For Commercial Slushie Machines:

  1. Mix Ratio:1 part syrup: 4 parts cold water (e.g. 2L syrup + 8L water for one tank)
  2. Stir well before pouring into the machine.
  3. Turn on freeze/chill mode and let the machine do its thing (typically 30–60 mins depending on model).
  4. Serve + garnish. Top with fruit, mint, or a splash of sparkling water for flair.

For Home Slushie Machines:

  1. As a general rule use the same 1:4 syrup-to-water ratio.
    (Scale down as needed — e.g. 100ml syrup + 400ml water.)
  2. Blend until icy or follow your machine’s instructions.
  3. Optional: Add a scoop of sorbet or splash of soda for extra smoothness or fizz.

Bonus: Layer Your Flavours

Want to get fancy? Try pouring two slushie flavours in layers.

  • Strawberry + Watermelon for a frozen daiquiri vibe
  • Peach Tea + Passionfruit for a tropical tea twist
  • Vanilla + Coffee for a nostalgic spider/slush float

Final Sip

Flavoured slushies are more than a summer trend, they’re a super simple way to impress guests, cool down quickly, and show off your syrup stash. Whether you’re experimenting at home or adding a new option to your café menu, Cashmere Syrups make it easy to get frosty.
