OK, so now you can go and have a look at more about the margaritaville dm2000 premium frozen concoction maker or you can stick with your normal Cuisinart Smoothie Maker. The choice is yours, it all depends on what you want from your machine.
Well, what can I say about the Margaritaville DM2000 Premium Frozen Concoction Maker? It is not a normal blender, which is true. You can use it as a normal blender though and it will give you perfect smoothies. So, if you are a smoothie lover, like me, you will also love this machine.
So, why do we not think about smoothies a bit? I always wonder where this addiction to smoothies started. When I grew up we had plain old milkshakes and that was it. Now it is smoothies all the time! I agree they can be healthy, note I say can, as some of the concoctions some make cannot be considered healthy.
For me a smoothie must have healthy ingredients and most of the ingredients must be fruit. Once you start adding chocolate, coffee and heaps of sugar you are moving into the directions of a very elaborate milkshake as far as I go. Adding some dairy ice cream is still fine, at least it is dairy, so that is OK by me. So, the line between a smoothie and a milkshake does blur a little.
Now though, we get to this machine that is a little different than your normal smoothie maker. What is unique is the ice shaver it has. You play the ice in the ice compartment on top of the machine and it shaves the exact right amount of ice into your drink. Well, this is really a good idea. So often you do not know how much ice is going to be needed to get just the fight consistency, now all you need to do is set it right and it comes out perfect.
OK, so now you can turn your "smoothie" into an "ice drink" by letting the machine shave some ice into your smoothie while you are making it! I know, maybe for those of you that have winter at the moment it does not sound so nice, but in summer, imagine the cool "icy" smoothie you can have when you get home hot and tired.
So, if you are looking for something a little more than the normal smoothie maker, maybe looking at the Margaritaville DM2000 Premium Frozen Concoction Maker is not a bad idea.
