Blender

A strong blender turns ice and ingredients into the smooth texture of frozen drinks like the Piña Colada. Tiki bars use spindle mixers to flash-blend drinks with crushed ice.

How to Use a Blender

  1. Add liquids first, then ice.
  2. Pulse to break up the ice, then blend until smooth.
  3. For flash blending, blend for 5 seconds with crushed ice and pour everything into the glass.

Tip

Use roughly one cup of ice per drink, and add more ice rather than more liquid if it is too thin.

What to Look For

At least 1000 watts with a tamper.
