Ninja Apple Cider Italian Ice

Ninja Apple Cider Italian Ice

24 hour prep time

Yields: 3 cups
dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Apple Cider

Directions:

1. Pour Juice into Ninja Creami Deluxe Container, up to Max Fill line
2. Place in freezer for 24 hours without the lid*
3. When ready to enjoy, process using the Ninja Creami Deluxe Italian Ice setting, re-spin if necessary, adding more liquid if needed

Hoff Thoughts: *Freezing without the lid or any covering helps to prevent the “volcano” mound from forming. Should a mound form simply scrape with the back of a spoon & smooth over shavings until a level base is formed, this prevents the blade from cutting into the container.
