We recently review the ChillFactor Slushy Maker which my daughter loved so when we were asked if we would like to review the ChillFactor Drinks Bottle we happily accepted.
Now before I go on I wanted to say that the ChillFactor Drinks Bottle is a drinks bottle NOT a slushy maker in case you are confused.
Chill your drink in seconds with the super cool ChillFactor drink bottle! Simply put the water back in the freezer and freeze. When ready pour in some water or juice, squeeze and then in seconds your drink will be totally chilled!
We received a pink drinks bottle and I was quite surprised at the size of it as it was bigger than I thought and wider too.
There is full instructions with the drinks bottle on how to clean it properly and also how to chill your drink.
The first thing I did was wash everything and once dried I popped the cooling pack into the freeze overnight although it does state 4-6 hours will do it, it is just easier to put it in overnight as I do not have to time things then and it ensures that the cooling pack will be frozen enough.
Then next day I removed the cooling pack and popped it back into the bottle, make up some squash and poured that into the bottle, put the lid on and squeezed for about 30 seconds.
As the bottle got colder it changed colour from pink to purple and inside of the bottle I noticed where the drink had been on the cooling pack it had slightly frozen.
We did have difficulty with the straw part of this bottle, it took a while to get it to work while my daughter was sucking away on it. Finally we got it right and she was happy. She could have also drank the drink from the sip spout but like most children the straw spout was much more appealing.
We have used this almost every day, only once per day though due to the cooling pack needing to be frozen and the drinks are very cold, just what everyone needs on a hot day.
The novelty of the bottle changing colours is a great gimmick that keeps the children amused when they move their fingers and hands around the bottle and makes them want to use it more.
The ChillFactor Drinks Bottle is suitable for ages 3 years and upwards,costs around £12.99 and is available to purchase from Character Online website.

Hi, how did I get the straw part to work? Thanks
Flip the top up, if the drink isn’t coming through the hole, open the bottle up and push the straw in as far as it will go and it should work 🙂
