Any suggestions?

Ice chips or slushies were my go-to way to get in liquids when I could not tolerate anything room or barely cold. All my drinks if liquid had to be freezing cold (Dr said that this is normal btw) and when I found out about sugar free slushies and then how to make my own I was so excited and problem was solved for me. Also just plain ice chips works as well without any kind of sryup on it at all. I also froze flavored drinks and then crushed them up and that worked too. I got desperate enough to try to freeze a chocolate Protein Shake and eat it that way, but that did not work so well LOL. ICK had to toss that one failed attempt.

how do you make your own slushies?

Use a nice strong blender- many swear by the ninja- or food processor. I just have a food processor with grater blade. Put ice through that until its the texture you like. Then put on your sugar free Syrup and eat. You can also freeze your fav drink and crush it the same way tjen no need for syrup. There are also slushie makers you can buy but I don't think it's necessary
