Why Canadians Love Slurpee
Slurpee isn’t just a drink—it’s a Canadian obsession. The first Slurpee in Canada was poured in Calgary in 1969, and today, over 40% of Slurpees are sold during the summer months. No city loves it more than Winnipeg, which holds the unofficial title of Slurpee Capital of the World. In fact, locals are known to greet friends at the airport with Slurpees instead of flowers.
