In 1970, Will Radcliff hit upon a slush machine - and a great idea for fun frozen beverages. There may have been only four flavors back then - Cherry, Grape, Orange, and Lemon-Lime - but they sure set the stage for a flavor explosion.
Slush Puppie now boasts more than 20 flavors, including a wide selection of fruit-juicy flavors such as Strawberry Kiwi, Green Apple Ice Cap, and Blue Raspberry. And you can still count on the cool crunchiness of the ice, the vibrant colors, the sweet smell and taste of the flavors, and even the satisfying sound of the slush hitting your cup. Good times and Slush Puppie still go hand-in-hand, just as they did 35 years ago.
The Slush Puppie Company was acquired in January 2001 by London-based Cadbury Schweppes plc. Today, the Slush Puppie frozen drink division continues under the ownership of Plano, Texas-based Cadbury Schweppes Americas Beverages, the largest non-cola soft drink enterprise in North America and the largest subsidiary of London-based Cadbury Schweppes plc.
