  • Patent number: 6511693
    Abstract: A frozen slushy drink product in a flexible pouch and a method for producing and packaging the same is provided. A calcium component, a stabilizer component, and a distinctively flavored component are combined and pasteurized at a temperature over about 180° F. The pasteurization causes the stabilizer component, in concert with the calcium component, to cause hydrophilic thickening. The product is packaged in a flexible pouch and is immediately consumable by a consumer after removal from a home freezer and manual manipulation of the pouch in order to break up the ice crystals and ensure a desirable slushy consistency.
