Never seen it as a slushie in Italy but we do have azure ice cream. It used to be called "puffo" (=Smurf) but smurfs aren't popular anymore, so now they usually sell it as "marshmallow" or "cotton candy".

But it tastes nothing like raspberry?

    It's not like most ice-cream flavors taste anything like the real thing...

    Especially in the US (not Italian artisanal gelato)

In the U.K. I remember it being a novelty flavour for a brief period in the 90s.

I’ve not seen or heard of the idea since then, although this may reflect my own consumer preferences.

    Surely no visit to a UK chain cinema (Odeon/Vue) in summer is complete without a refreshing and sugar-free Tango Ice Blast?! It's the "UK’S N0.1 FROZEN DRINK BRAND", according to their own marketing.

    And the two original, traditional flavours of Tango Ice Blast are Red (Cherry) and Blue (Raspberry).

    In fact, I can't remember ever seeing any other flavours, although according to their website there are others:

I have never seen this product or heard the term "blue raspberry" in my life, so probably not around the world.
