When the heat is on come this summer, there is nothing like a cold, refreshing treat. There are a variety of ways to do so (like dipping in a makeshift pool), but the Coca-Cola Shaved Ice Machine by Nostalgia Electrics stands out as one that’s super easy and super affordable way with a touch of nostalgia. If you want your kitchen to look like its part of Johnny Rockets’ setup, then this is the must-have machine and it will cost you just 40 bucks. Yup. 40 American dollars is all it takes for an ice cold treat. To be honest, we were pleasantly surprised by the sticker too. It comes standard with two ice molds for freezing ice into the perfect shape and size, ready to be shaved into snow-like ice by the machine’s stainless steel cutting blades.
With the soft, fluffy shaved ice ready, you can do whatever you want with it to aid you in soothing the heat, like for examples, adding the drink of your choice to make snow cones, slush drinks, margaritas, daiquiris, or use it to make ice beds for cold seafood for buffets. Or perhaps, even making your own iteration of brain freeze drinks? Well, the choice is up to you and at just $40, we don’t see why it can’t be part of your army of kitchen gadgets. Dressing up in sixties Stepford Wives attire is entirely optional. Catch the machine in action in the video below.
