McLean Slush Syrup 5:1 Concentrate - Multi-Flavour Bulk
McLean Slush Syrup 5:1 Concentrate in a 4x4-litre bulk case is designed for Canadian food service operators, executive chefs, catering companies, and institutional kitchens. It's commonly used for frozen beverages, slush floats, and blended cold brew coffees, and works in machines like Taylor, Bunn, and Cornelius. ChickenPieces.com ships McLean slush syrup Canada-wide from Calgary. It is both vegan and gluten-free.
McLean Slush Syrup 5:1 Concentrate is a reliable, high-yield base for commercial slush machines. When you're slinging hundreds of frozen drinks at peak summer festival crowds, consistent hopper performance and flavour variety keep lines moving and customers happy. Operators choose this concentrate because the texture holds up and a single case yields 96 litres of finished slush. That matters for a busy concession stand or a catering job where you can't afford to run out mid-service.
McLean Slush Syrup 5:1 Concentrate - Multiple Flavors - 4 Litre (4/Case) — Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service
This McLean slush syrup is a professional-grade liquid concentrate. It's formulated specifically to freeze consistently into a smooth, non-separating slush beverage in commercial machines. The 5:1 dilution ratio gives a reliable finished product, which matters when you're running high volume through a drive-thru or a cafeteria line. This concentrate is less likely to cause ice crystal problems than cheaper syrups, which means less machine downtime and less waste.
Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide — all 10 provinces and 3 territories — in 2-5 business days.
"I've seen our customers get serious volume with McLean. One catering outfit in Edmonton used three cases for a weekend festival and kept their queues moving. The 5:1 ratio gives a consistent product, and we rarely hear about machine issues with it. Stocking a couple of cases of the neutral base, even if you're mostly selling flavours, is always smart."
In the Canadian food service market, a reliable slush offering captures seasonal sales and keeps customers coming back. This McLean concentrate delivers that, with 21 distinct flavours ranging from classic Blue Raspberry and Cherry to Extreme Sensation and Sour Apple. Whether you're running a downtown cafe or a camp kitchen, a concentrate that performs consistently saves staff time and prevents waste. You can cycle through flavours quickly or blend them for custom creations without messing with your prep.
Quality & Specifications
This is a professional-grade liquid concentrate designed for optimal freezing performance in commercial slush machines. Each 4-litre jug delivers a 5:1 concentrate, yielding 24 litres of ready-to-freeze mix per jug, or 96 litres of finished slush per 4-jug case. It freezes into a smooth, consistent texture that resists separation, which is a common problem with cheaper syrups.
Professional Applications
Use it for classic Mango or Cherry Slushies at concession stands. It also works as a base for frozen non-alcoholic cocktails like a Virgin Piña Colada or Strawberry Daiquiri in bar programs. You can build custom items like a Cold Brew Slush or a Slush Float by combining the vanilla base with soft serve. It's a solid option for institutional cafeterias that need a consistent cold beverage.
Storage & Handling
Store unopened 4-litre jugs in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight at room temperature. Once opened, keep the jug sealed tightly and refrigerated to maintain flavour and freshness. The mixed, ready-to-freeze solution holds its freeze stability for over 48 hours in a slush machine without separation, which cuts down on waste during service.

Specific origin details vary by flavour, but McLean Slush Syrup is reliably stocked for the Canadian market. We ship this concentrate from our Calgary distribution hub to all 10 provinces and 3 territories. Our customers count on this steady supply for their year-round slush programs from coast to coast.
