1. Make sure ingredients are well chilled before pouring.

3. When making alcoholic slush: Alcohol lowers freezing point → add more mixer/water.

4. Turn the machine to Freezer Mode until the texture becomes semi-solid.

5. Switch to Serve Mode and enjoy your drinks.

• Add sugar—it helps achieve a smoother freezing texture.
• Pre-chill ingredients for faster freezing.
• Avoid carbonated drinks unless mixed with non-carbonated liquids.
• Stir fruit purees before adding; they settle quickly.
• Clean the tank immediately after use for the easiest maintenance.
