Top 3 Best Blenders for Smoothies
The number one question people ask me is, “how do you get your smoothies so blended?” Meaning how do I make a smoothie with strawberries and not have a mouth full of seeds, or how do I make a smoothie with kale and spinach with no bits of leaves in it? The answer is, my blender. Your product is only as good as the tools you use. I am a business owner that sells smoothies, but I always encourage people to make their own smoothies at home. I want to educate and encourage people to take charge of their eating habits, not stay dependent on strangers to feed you good food. Here is a list of blenders I deem as the best on the market right now. I encourage you to invest in a good blender, and make your own recipes in the morning or after a work out. Try to eliminate added sugar, but if you must then use a small amount of unrefined plant based sugar, stevia, or natural sugar for flavor. Check out these brands below.
Vitamix

Yes I know, It’s expensive! Not many people want to pay more than $80 for a blender. Don’t think of a Vitamix blender like you would a blender you could buy at Walmart or Target. Think of a Vitamix as a investment for your kitchen lifestyle. The Vitamix is not just for smoothies. You can create so many different things with this awesome kitchen tool. Hot soups, Baby Food, Dough (pasta and bread), Nut Butters, Frozen Desserts, Batter, Dressings, Sauces, Non-Dairy Milks, Dips & Spreads, and Food Prep.

There are only 3 speeds, but it’s easy to clean.
3. Blendtec
Blendtec Designer 650, Black and Stainless Steel
The Blendtech is comparable to the Vitamix, except its not as robust. They cost around the same, expensive. The Blendtech has a powerful 3HP motor. Equipped with a 10 speed manual control and six pre programmed cycles. It is a beast of a machine. You can choose from their classic series, designer series, and pro series.
