However, blenders can step in to step in where hand blenders fall short. It’s much simpler to crush ice in a regular-sized blender than it is in hand blenders. The steps below can help you crush ice in your blender if you’re interested.
Fill your blender with a little bit of water. Adding water will make crushing the ice much easier and faster.
Now place the ice cubes in the blender. You can use any amount of ice cubes. But we recommend using around 2-3 cups per session.
Now turn on the power switch and start blending.
Once the crushed ice starts looking smooth, take it out of the blender and strain it.
Your crushed ice is ready!
How To Crush Ice in a Hand Blender?
Crushing ice with a hand blender is possible. However, there are a few considerations to make first before you do that.
Recheck if your hand blender is powerful enough to crush ice. Most of the hand blender manufacturers mention in the user manual if their hand blender can crush ice or not. Only use your hand blender to crush ice if the instruction manual allows you to.
If your hand blender comes with a different set of blades for crushing ice, then use it for the process. A blender blade specifically designed for crushing ice is sharper, sturdier, and offers smooth and consistent ice every single time.
Make sure that the ice you are using for making crushed ice is not too small or too large. Because the ice is too large, then it will put pressure on the hand blender motor. And if it is too small, the blades will struggle to crush it.
Where can I get crushed ice to drink?
Most large supermarkets, cash and carry shops, and even some small local businesses sell crushed ice.
