What are Smoothie Makers?

A smoothie maker is a type of electrical blender designed to make smoothies. The blades are specifically shaped to ensure that soft fruit is blended with the liquid. Most smoothie makers have a built-in pouring tap at the base of the jug and a stirring stick to make it even more convenient to make a refreshing smoothie.
