Our verdict

A countertop frozen drink maker that shaves ice and blends in one cycle, or runs either step alone. It makes one pitcher at a time and is a bulky unit to store.

Overview

Shaving ice and blending in one cycle, the Bahamas turns ingredients into a pitcher of frozen drinks. A shave and blend setting runs the whole process, while shave only and blend only settings let a cook handle ice and mix-ins separately.

One-pass frozen drinks are the reason to look at it, with manual modes for anyone who wants to adjust the ice or ingredients. The limitation is size, with a single pitcher per batch and a body that is large for a small cabinet.

Who it's for

Backyard gatherings and home bars with room for a countertop appliance are the setting here. Cooks wanting a compact blender for daily smoothies, or serving many guests at once, will find one pitcher limiting.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Automatic shave and blend cycle
  • Manual shave only and blend only modes
  • Pour spout on the pitcher
  • Dishwasher safe, per the listing
Cons
  • Single pitcher per batch
  • Heavy, tall body for storage
  • Limited warranty coverage

Performance notes

The unit shaves ice first, then blends it with the liquid, so drink texture depends on how much ice and liquid go into the pitcher. Blend only suits ingredients that are already crushed or soft. Stainless steel blades do the cutting, and the automatic setting follows a pre-programmed sequence.
