Best Bar Blenders
Bar blenders help make smoothies, frozen cocktails, and other beverages smaller
than traditional blenders and are often countertop appliances. There are a few things to look for in
a bar blender to ensure you get the best product. Many bar blenders are intended for cocktails, so
they have a few speed settings to make that process easier. A bar blender with more speed settings
allows you to have more control over the texture of your drinks. Most bar blenders have a crush
setting to ensure your ice gets small for a nice smooth texture. If you are looking for a bar
blender with a pour function, make sure you get one with a stopper on the spout to avoid accidents.
Finally, look for a bar blender that is easy to clean to save time and effort. With these tips in
mind, choosing the best bar blender for you and your home bar is easy.
