After receiving multiple requests from consumers for a ready-to-drink, at-home slushy, Big Easy Blends partnered with The Icee Co. to develop Slush Puppie frozen slushies in pouches. Launching nationally in March, the line will be available in Cherry, Blue Raspberry and Strawberry flavors. An 8-ounce pouch will have a suggested retail price of $1.
