Cape Codder
If you are startled by the name of this cocktail, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s actually just vodka cranberry, but with a twist. And no, we don’t mean to add lime in it. All you need is a bottle of cranberry juice and some vodka, a couple of cranberries inside the glass which you can ornate with a small piece of lime. That’s it! Also, vodka is such a good ingredient for creating DIY cocktails that you can come up with lots and lots of new drinks. You can make a Frog in the orange juice machine if you add fresh lime or orange to the mix and blend everything together. We’re not going to cover how to make a smoothie with a blender since we’re talking about a cocktail drink; however, the steps are straightforward.

Margarita Varieties
It’s probably the most popular cocktail out there. Also, the one that’s extremely easy to prepare and combine with juice machine recipes. A margarita can be mixed with Apple Pucker and apple juice to create an apple margarita. Or, add some pineapple and strawberries to get a Hawaiian one. Peach schnapps or even fresh peaches can give you an excellent recipe for a hand blender smoothie margarita. Let your imagination fly with this awesome cocktail and play with the flavors until you invent one to put your name on it.
Black Russian
Another cocktail that can be combined with any hand blender smoothie as it doesn’t require a lot of effort to prepare. Besides, this is that type of drink with a fantastic look that will blow everyone’s mind. You’ll just need vodka and Kahlua, and there’s no blending required. Make sure you mix the two drinks properly. From this, you can go to a white Russian just by adding cream, and with cola, you will get a Colorado Bulldog.
Ombré Smoothie With Raspberry

Do smoothie recipes come easier than this? For it, you need an entire pineapple, a ripe mango, and 250 grams of raspberries. Peel, remove the core and the eyes of the pineapple, then chop it into pieces. Then, peel the mango and cut it into chunks as well. Add the raspberries, pineapple, mango, and water into the smoothie blender and make sure everything is homogenous. You can use a fruit smoothie blender or a regular one for that matter as long as all the ingredients are perfectly mixed together. Decorate it with some raspberries, play with your imagination and you’re all set!
