If you’ve ever tried making a slushie at home and ended up with a sad, half-melted puddle or an unblended icy mess, this might be the best news you’ll hear all year.
The Ninja slushie maker – officially known as the Ninja SLUSHi – has been one of the most hyped kitchen gadgets of 2025, racking up a waitlist of 50,000 people before it even launched in Australia. And with Black Friday rolling in, it’s now on sale across multiple retailers, with prices starting from as low as $358 (usually $599.99) – one of the best discounts we’ve seen so far.
After the hype of the Ninja CREAMi, it was only a matter of time before Ninja turned its attention to drinks – and the result is just as clever. The Ninja SLUSHi uses the same simple, no-fuss approach but is built for smooth, icy drinks instead of thick, scoopable desserts.

Why is everyone obsessed with the Ninja SLUSHi?
The secret lies in its RapidChill Technology, which evenly freezes liquid inside a cooling cylinder to create smooth, bar-quality frozen drinks at home. Think of it as the grown-up version of DIY slushies – only this time, they actually turn out right.
Here’s the short scoop:
- No ice required. Just pour in your drink watch it freeze into the perfect slushie.
- Works with almost anything. Wine, coffee, juice, soft drinks — even chocolate milk can be turned into a frozen treat!
- Five one-touch pre-sets. Get the ideal texture for slushies, frappés, milkshakes and more.
- Mess-free pouring. A built-in self-serve handle and no-drip spout make the Ninja slushie machine easy to use.
- Keeps drinks frozen for hours. The insulated vessel maintains the chill for up to 12 hours.

What is the difference between the Ninja SLUSHi and Ninja CREAMi?
Both make frozen treats, but they’re designed for different things. The Ninja SLUSHi turns liquids into smooth, icy drinks – no ice, no blender, no watered-down results. The Ninja CREAMi (and the newer CREAMi Swirl) focuses on creamy, scoopable desserts made from frozen-solid bases.
If you’re after frozen cocktails, frappés, or classic slushies, go for the SLUSHi. If homemade ice cream is more your thing, the CREAMi is the better pick.
