For the first year of its life, the Ninja Slushi didn’t go on sale much. Mostly what it did was sell out of stock—over and over and over.
But of course it did. The Ninja Slushi offers something that feels so rare these days: adult fun. It was the first device that really brought the bar slushie machine into the American home kitchen. It basically just takes whatever flavors you already have on hand and makes it into the kind of boozy slushie that would be sold at the 7-Elevens in heaven.
Anyway, it’s now on a hefty sale—matching its lowest price for the full-time machine since it first went on sale in July 2024, then sold out almost instantaneously. On Amazon and the Ninja site, the Slushi is on sale for just $270, just in time for holiday gifts and holiday parties.
I can attest to enjoying the Ninja Slushi immensely. I have made cold-brew slushie lattes, mimosa slushies, frosé slushies, daiquiri and margarita slushies, sour-beer slushies, Mike’s Hard Mango Lemonade Slushies, and of course slushies made with fruit juice and simple syrup for parties full of children. All things cold and sweet are delicious.
The Ninja Slushi was discounted to $300 as recently as October. At the time, this was the lowest I expected to see the price fall this year. Glad to be wrong, I guess.
But discounts often come when brands release next-generation devices. And in late October, Ninja released a big-boi update to the Slushi. The Slushi Max XXL is named a bit like an energy drink and holds a whopping 150 fluid ounces—making it the likely choice for frat houses and patio parties next year. We haven’t tested it yet, but Ninja promises that the larger capacity also comes with faster freezing to keep pace.
The Ninja Slushi Max, too, is on a steep sale. If you go to the Ninja site, you can get the new, larger device for just $350; same as the regular asking price for the smaller Ninja.
The Amazon price is a little bit higher on the Slushi Max XXL, at least for now—though Ninja has a cascade of overlapping sales before and during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so don’t expect this price to remain wholly stable.
Either way, cheap slushies for everyone.
