Origin of the word slushy

The word "slushy" has a fascinating history, originating from the word "slush," which first appeared in the early 1800s. "Slush" originally referred to soft, partially melted snow, likely evolving from the Old Norse word "slös," meaning "dirty, wet snow." By the late 19th century, "slushy" emerged as a descriptive term for something resembling this soft, watery snow, giving us the word we use today for a semi-frozen treat.
