I loved reviewing this blender from Hamilton Beach. It has loads of power and is a durable blender that easily makes smoothies or shakes, and it’s also great for making soups, sauces, or salsa. Ordinary blenders spin contents around the walls of the jar, which can leave whole chunks untouched by the blades. The Hamilton Beach Wave~Action® System is designed to continually force the mixture down into the blades for consistently smooth results. They have been making blenders for over a hundred years, so they know a thing or two about blenders.
To fully test out the blender, I decided to make a some frozen pops and a smoothie, and add some baby carrots to them, just to see how smooth the Wave Action could make them. Here is the list of ingredients I used:
1 banana
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
2 containers greek yogurt, any flavor (I used Raspberry and Strawberry Banana)
2 cups coconut milk
1/3 cup Splenda
1/2 cup baby carrots
I put all the ingredients into the blender, placed the lid on, and let her spin! In just about 15 seconds, I had a very smooth and tasty concoction to pour into my frozen pop cups. I poured the rest into two glasses for me and Fabgrandpa to drink for a quick afternoon snack. There were no lumps at all, and Fabgrandpa didn’t even know I added carrots to it. That’s a pretty sneaky way to add some veggies into someone’s diet if they are a picky eater.

- Wave~Action® system pulls mixture into the blades for smooth results
