The article says it makes two.

We've used last fall's frozen wild blackberries for this one with plenty of ice and just a little sugar. Delicious.

Cheryl

Delicious like this or sub frozen mango (etc) for the berries and some of the ice.

Anne

I am not seeing anything frozen. Did I miss something?

CathyB

Including the ice w/ the other ingredients in the blender will make a slushy, near-frozen drink.
