If you've never used a Blendtec blender before, I suggest you try it. After receiving a Blendtec blender to review, I've used it almost every day since. I've used it to make smoothies, sauces, hummus, nut butters, and cocktails. Blendtec is famous for their “Will It Blend?” series on YouTube which you MUST check out if you haven't already seen it. The blender, which is made in Orem, Utah, has so many features making it my go-to, most frequently used kitchen appliance. Every time someone asks me about my Blendtec, I'm brimming with enthusiasm. What can I say? It's just one of those things I cannot live without!
I love a great cocktail, so I tried out my own cocktail recipes using Blendtec. I decided to put a twist on my whiskey sour recipe by adding an egg white to the recipe, much like you would with a pisco sour. The egg white adds texture and volume and rests on the top of the cocktail. The Blendtec blender is wonderful for making things frothy, so I tested out my cocktail recipe using the blender.

Mine does too, in fact had to send it in to be rebuilt within 3 years of purchase. Mine also moves all over the counter on high speed. I am thinking my next purchase will be a Blendtec.
A Blendtec blender is so much more than a blender (especially a cheapo blender like the one I have now). I’ve had a Blendtec on my wish list for a long time. With a Blendtec, I wouldn’t need a food processor or a grain mill, two other appliances on my wish list. And I love that it’s made in the USA!
Because I’m a smoothie freak and I’m currently using a $10 blender that is just awful. I want something that can make a smoothie in less than 20 minutes.
I cannot believe how many machines this has the capacity to replace.. it’s motor must be super powerful!
Would love this for our regattas. We have a tiny little generator — this would be epic!
Trying to incorporate a raw diet into my lifestyle, a blendtec would help me loads to achieve this!!!!! Can’t afford it, and want it BADLY!
Wow, these blenders look awesome and the youtube WIll it blend videos are HILARIOUS. I’d make CHINESE CHILL, a coffee drink recipe on their website. Sounds wonderful!
