If you’ve been struggling to figure out what actually works in the Ninja Slushi machine, you’re not alone. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve poured something in, crossed my fingers, and ended up with half-frozen juice or a big icy block instead of a real slush. That’s why I had to nail down this Apple Cider Slush recipe. It blends perfectly, freezes just right, and gives you that smooth, sippable texture without all the trial and error.

Pop your apple cider in the fridge so it’s nice and cold before you start. Cold liquid makes the machine process faster.
Combine the cider, brown sugar or sweetener, and cinnamon. Stir and whisk to combine.
Pour the apple cider into the drink reservoir.
Place your cup under the spout, lock everything into place, and hit the slushi setting.
Allow the machine to process. Let the machine run for 15-45 minutes, depending on the sugar content and temperature of the liquid. Mine took 20 minutes.
Once the cycle is complete, place a cup under the self-serve spout and pull the handle to dispense the cider.
Notes
How to Use a Regular BlenderYou will have to add ice to thicken the slush when using a regular blender. This will water down the drink, so you will have to adjust the cinnamon and brown sugar, and maybe how much cider you use.
