The Slurpee was first introduced by 7-Eleven back in the 1960s, and it was meant to be a drink that you could, well, slurp! It's made with a mixture of water, sugar, and flavorings, which are then frozen to create that signature ice-crystal texture. But, where did the Slushie come from?
As it turns out, the Slushie has its roots in the 1950s, when it was known as an "ICEE." It was a similar concept to the Slurpee, but with a slightly different texture and taste. So, what's the main difference between these two frozen friends? Is it the machine that makes them, or something more?
