Travel Blenders That Crush Smoothie Making

If healthy shakes and smoothies are a part of your daily meal plan, you shouldn’t have to give it up when traveling.

One challenge is packing the right tools since a shaken smoothie doesn’t always prove as satisfying as one made with ice or frozen fruits. Choosing the right blender that brings high power in a smaller, lightweight package is the key.

Here are some of our two favorite compact blenders:

The Nutri Ninja

This is our favorite! At 7.5 pounds, it may be a little bulky and heavy for some travelers but you can’t beat the 1100 watts of power. If you’re looking for some lighter alternatives that take up less suitcase space, keep scrolling.

FreshVac Technology – the easy-to-use, one-touch, FreshVac Pump is designed to preserve vitamins, flavors, and colors by removing oxygen before blending.

  • Enjoy long-lasting drinks, smoothies, and shakes with less foam and separation as compared to traditional blending mode.

  • The Next Generation of Nutrient & Vitamin Extraction* – Unlock the full potential of your fruits and veggies. *Extract a drink containing vitamins and nutrients from fruits and vegetables

  • Auto-iQ Technology – Features intelligent programs that combine unique timed pulsing, blending, and pausing patterns that do the work for you.

  • The digital countdown timer displays how much time is remaining on the selected Auto-iQ blender program or counts up to track blending time when using the two manual speeds.

  • 1100 Watts of Power.

When on the road, you may want to opt for a chocolate or peanut butter shake that can be made with our favorite Quest Protein Powders and either water or almond milk. We are using Quest powder and Aldi Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk in the smoothie pictured in the article.
