I don't really need an excuse to enjoy an ice cream or frozen drink, but I think the sun shining is a perfect one. Sure, buying shop-bought varieties of frosty treats is easy, but once you start making them at home, you realize how much fun you can have with flavors, toppings and textures.

While buying an ice cream maker or frozen drink maker might seem like a big investment, if you use it enough you'll end up saving money. Plus, you can bring it out whenever you're hosting family and friends over the summer months. Or, just if you fancy some ice cream. Here are the 15 I'd recommend buying, from single slushie cups to premium ice cream machines.
