TRANSCRIPT
Slushy, blended drinks are perfect for hot weather, but the problem is almost as soon as you've made those cocktails, they start melting and liquefying on you. Here at CHOW we store the drinks in the frozen bowl of our ice cream maker, which keeps them cold and frozen much longer than if you just had them in the blender, and you finally have another use for your ice cream maker.
