There are two types of people: The ones that meticulously plot, pack, and always show up ten minutes early, and the ones that are (ahem) fashionably late and inevitably forgot something crucial. I fall in the latter camp.
Exhibit A: A few weekends ago, my friends and I decided to day-trip to the beach. At the 11th hour, I realized I’d *probably* need a beach towel, had yet to throw a sandwich together, and had exactly zero beverage options in stock.
With my friends waiting in the car (who know my reputation well), I knew I needed to move as quickly as possible. I grabbed a towel from the closet and some leftover pasta salad from the fridge. And then, in a stroke of genius, I remembered my new portable blender.
I nestled my BlendJet 2.0 into my tote with room to spare, grabbed a few bags of frozen fruit and my favorite electrolyte packets, and made sure there was plenty of ice in the cooler. Fast forward a few hours, and I’d more than made up for my morning tardiness with on-demand refreshing bevs for everyone in the group.
Since then, I’ve been finding ways to use the BlendJet 2.0 portable blender every day—whether I’m perfecting my piña colada recipe, sipping a protein shake on the go, or snacking on crushed ice. You can snag the blender at QVC for over 30 percent off today only, and you’ll get a made-for-summer drinking lid and insulated sleeve when you do.
Right off the bat, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of oomph this portable blender packs. Big chunks of frozen fruit and ice are no match for its patented TurboJet technology, which creates a tornado effect to whir ingredients at a speed of 275 times per second. It’s highly effective and seriously satisfying to watch.
Keeping my BlendJet 2.0 in working order is a breeze, too. It charges with a USB cord, and it lasts about 15 blends between plug-ins. Toting it to gym sessions, poolside hangs, and backyard barbecues is a total party trick, but it’s not just for on-the-go sipping. I’ve been whipping up salad dressings, pasta sauces, and frothy lattes from the comfort of my kitchen, too.
My favorite part is how simple it is to wash. I used to avoid making smoothies because of how tedious the clean-up process is—remember, I’m always behind schedule. Now, I add a drop of soap and some water, hit blend, and voilà. It’s sparkly clean and ready for its next made-to-order serving.
As a newly permanent fixture in my bag, I know I’m prepped (and hydrated) for whatever my day brings. If you’re into making the season more relaxing for yourself and winning over your friends with delicious drinks while you’re at it, the only last-minute scrambling you need to do is grab this blender today while it’s at a major discount—then enjoy endless chill, on tap.
