This is Turtle.

All you need is a friend that drinks Frozen Margarita and get the way she or he
makes them and make the drink and just leave Rita out and you got a Slush or
Slurpee thing. You need to buy a good blender.

Now I have worked on some slurpee machines at Dairy Queen and you can get you a
good small machine for about $1,800.00 .

The secret to the slushes (beside the machine) is the amount of sugar
disolved into the water (it was at least 10 lbs of sugar in 5 gallons
of water, may have been more.. It has been almost 20 years since I
worked in a place that made slushees.). There was also something
called "slush base" added to the mix. No clue what is is.

Fattening! You can make a perfectly good drink like that with 3 cups of
frozen strawberries, 2 cups of OJ and a banana.

That may have just as much sugar. An equal sized serving of OJ has
close to as much sugar as Coke, if not more. At least it would have
some vitamins and minerals in it though, unlike the empty calories in
the Coke. Sounds mighty good too!

Based on what I see at the local 7-11, there is a certain category of people
who think refined sugar is a necessity of life. They usually arrive in
full-size conversion vans, which is one of the few vehicles they can fit
into since Cadillac discontinued the 1974 Fleetwood.
