Blender Bottle -- Review and Giveaway -- CLOSED!

CLOSED!




Ah, I love making blended drinks and foods (sauces, creams, etc.) I just hate the time and effort it takes for even the simplest things (not to mention the clean-up).

The amazing Blender Bottle makes it ALL simple and the clean-up is a SNAP!

A simple, well-designed wire whisk is the key.
The patented BlenderBall® wire whisk moves freely throughout the bottle as you shake it, mixing the thickest ingredients with ease.

It's true, too! I use it for my morning protein shakes, Mike likes it for milk shakes! We've made marinades, salad dressings, even cream sauces with it. OH! OH! NO LUMPS! NO CLUMPS!

And cleaning it is as easy as rinsing out, washing with dish detergent and drying it. No moving parts to tackle, no worries about anything getting stuck in a crevice and growing nasty.



Now, the folks at Blender Bottle have come up with a brilliant new idea! The Blender Bottle Sling! That's right -- you heard me! A Sling for your Blender Bottle!

This handy insulated sling, made from durable Neoprene, has been designed to fit your Blender Bottle mixer perfectly and keep your drinks cooler longer.



I can tell you -- this is true. Mike (Review Daddy) is a Land Surveyor and takes his Green Tea in his Blender Bottle out in the Field daily. His tea stays cold for hours rather than minutes in the hot Georgia summer. That's a BIG plus for him and for me. I worry about him.

The Blender Bottle Sling comes in so many cool colours / designs:
Stripes, Camo (That's what I got for Mike!), Polka Dot, Black/Grey Wave, Red, and more are coming!

Blender Bottle also has a great new recipe book! Oh, yes. It's 101 Quick & Easy BlenderBottle Recipes and trust me, you'll find a little bit of everything in this great little book!



The generous folks at Blender Bottle have offered TWO of my readers a chance to win a 28 oz. Blender Bottle, Sling, and Cookbook of their very own! Fantastic, isn't it?
