Theres a new final boss of frozen drink makers: The Ninja Slushi Twist can mix 2 flavors, still no ice needed

On May 11, Ninja released a new Slushi machine that can swirl two flavors together. The Slushi Twist costs $399.99 and already sold out once.

Ninja finally made a Slushi machine that can make two different flavors at once. (Consider it a modern twist on the Margaritaville Tahiti.) Announced May 11, the Ninja Slushi Twist kind of looks like two regular Slushi machines fused together. You can see where this is going.

Each vessel still has its own individual spout and handle, so flavors can be dispensed independently of each other. The fun part? Hit the button in the middle to swirl them together for a perfectly-layered striped drink.

Though small Slushi upgrades have been released here and there, this is easily the biggest news since the initial Slushi launched in July 2024. It's not surprising that it's already out of stock on the day of its release. The Slushi Twist costs $399.99, though, and you can sign up to have SharkNinja notify you when it's back.

The Slushi Twist is the ultimate frozen drink maker for families with kids or anyone who likes to host. The kids get their fruit punch slushie, the adults get their frosé. Can't decide between a strawberry or jalapeño margarita for an upcoming happy hour hangout? The Slushi Twist won't make you choose between your sweet and spicy friends.

Compared to the original Slushi machine that I tested and loved, the Slushi Twist apparently slushes faster. Since my Slushi takes about an hour at most, I'm guessing the Twist can have drinks ready in 45 minutes max. Remember that the Slushi doesn't require ice like a regular blender or prepared frozen mixtures like the Ninja Creami.

New Dual SlushAssist mode auto-senses the ingredients on each side and auto-adjusts the temperature to keep them at the right chilly consistency. Choosing the right level of cold for my Slushi has been quite the trial and error, especially when sugar or alcohol content math is involved — so SlushAssist sounds pretty nice.
