1. Bahamas Drink Maker

Bahamas Drink MakerThe Bahamas frozen concoction maker with No Brainer Mixer (DM0700) is the obvious choice for novices in the art of creating tropical island drinks at home.

Markings up the side (5″W x 5″D x 7.625″H) allow you to effortlessly add the right amount of ingredients for pina coladas, daiquiris and ‘ritas. A simple twist releases your concoction into the 36oz (3 drinks capacity) shatterproof, lightweight plastic blending jar.

Start the automatic ‘Shave’n Blend’ cycle and watch the Bahamas’ 400-watt motor get to work shaving ice from its reservoir (holds enough for one full pitcher) and blending all ingredients for a perfect tropical drink right in the comfort of your own home.

Use the manual shave & blend controls to customize to your exact preferences. Once you’re done, pop open the hatch and serve with a clean pour.

Sporting Margaritaville maritime detailing and white finish with key lime accents, the Bahamas Margaritaville DM0700-000-000 Frozen Concoction Maker measures 8″W x 14″D x 17″H.

2. Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker

Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction MakerPowered by a 450-watt motor, the Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker with Easy Pour Jar and XL Ice Reservoir DM1900 (newer model of the DM1000) is a dependable workhorse with durable housing and a 36oz easy pour blending jar made of sturdy glass.
Decide whether you want 1, 2 or 3 drinks, and the four pre-programmed settings will tell the Key West the exact proportions of ice and ingredients needed to make your favorite drinks from classics such as pina coladas, daiquiris and ‘ritas to fruity homemade frozen concoctions.

The extra large, party size ice reservoir can supply enough ice for up to three full pitchers of frozen drinks. No need to worry about drinks getting over diluted: a small container in the back catches any melted water. Manual controls allow you to ‘shave only’ or ‘blend only’ for customized drink consistency.

The maritime blue Key West measures 9″W x 14″D x 18″H.

A special Jimmy Buffett Margarita Machine Anniversary Edition (DM1946) was created to mark 10 years of amazing frozen concoction making.

3. Fiji Margarita Blender

Fiji Margarita BlenderThe Fiji frozen drink machine (DM2500) comes with an easy pour jar and regular lid –beware, the lid with flip top spout as pictured is no longer available!

The Fiji’s ice hopper holds enough ice for almost 3 full pitchers (twice the size of the original DM1000), and it also has a reservoir to catch the melting ice so your drink of choice does not get diluted.

The Margaritaville Fiji Premium Frozen Concoction Maker with Easy-Pour Glass Blending Jar and Auto or Manual Shave & Blend measures 9″W x 14″D x 20″H and comes complete with smart Margaritaville® maritime detailing.

Dual settings allow you to blend your choice of either a 30oz batch or a full 60oz chamber of frozen concoctions, while manual Shave and Blend controls let you customize consistency.

One push of the self-dispensing lever sets the unique remix channel in motion, sending your blending mix into the blending chamber to be refreshed before being poured for restaurant-quality consistency.

6. Margaritaville Mixed Drink Maker

Margaritaville Mixed Drink MakerThe MD3000 automatic mixed drink maker is definitely on the expensive side. It may be a showoff (17.3” x 11” x 22.2”), but it also packs a major punch.

.White tank: flexible, as long it’s liquor (vodka, tequila or rum)*
.Red tank: cranberry juice
.Green tank: sour mix
.Orange tank: pulp-free orange juice
*Additional spirit bottles can be purchased for added flexibility.

Just fill the tanks with mixers and the liquor of your choice, and use the drink wheel selector for the drink of your choice. Feel like playing roulette? Choose the “Lucky 7” button and see what comes up. And if you’re not happy with the bartender’s selection – simply spin the wheel again!

With the flip of the Drink Strength selector, turn the regular 8-ounce drink into a double. 😉

An instruction manual covers this little Houdini’s every angle, including a list of all 48 different cocktails it’s capable of producing – 16 distinguished drinks each per spirit!!!

7. Travel Bag for Portable Margarita Machines

Oh, and if you’re planning on taking road trips with your Margaritaville margarita machine, what better than a travel bag with foam-padded interior designed to get that beauty there safely – or for perfect storage when you are not using it. You can choose between two travel bags for portable margarita machines:

Travel Bag for Portable Margarita MachinesThe Margaritaville AD1200 Universal Travel Bag was designed to house the Bahamas, Key West and Fiji models only. The Bali can squeeze in provided you remove its reservoir first which will then fit in the front with its lid on the side.

The AD1200 travel bag features a foam padded interior with a dual zipper pull flap and a nylon carrying handle. A large outside pocket with hook and loop closure will store your accessories.

MD3000 mixed drink maker travel bagAnd if you can’t bear to leave your MD3000 mixed drink maker behind, relax. It too can travel in comfort, secure in its very own custom designed Mixed Drink Maker Travel Bag (AD5100-000-000). So if you have a portable party in mind, no need to fret – this durable bag will cocoon your prized blender and keep your traveling bar organized.

Made of durable, water repellent canvas with a reinforced padded base and double-stitched seams, its foam-padded interior and dual-zipper pull flap will keep everything safe. Stash bottle openers, corkscrews and napkins in the two oversized cushioned accessory pockets with hook-and-loop closures, and you’re good to go! An adjustable nylon shoulder strap and padded shoulder cushion ensure a comfortable ride to your destination.

Margaritaville Party Time!These specialty blenders are able to do a superior job because they start with shaving – NOT crushing – the exact amount of ice from the reservoir to complement the number of drinks you choose to make – and then they automatically blend those shavings with your favorite ingredients for deliciously smooth libations.

Some frozen drink machines produce larger quantities and a greater variety of drinks than others, but they all show up ready to party. The question is, is your home ready to become next summer’s party hub?

Whether you enjoy making fruity smoothies or have more sophisticated adult cocktails in mind, a Margaritaville margarita machine is all you need to get the party started. Go ahead, bring the islands to your own backyard – no passport needed!
