Holiday gifts 2007: Ode to Margaritaville

By Charlyne Varkonyi Schaub December 4, 2007 10:38 AM

If someone on your holiday list loves margaritas, this gift will surely make you the best drinking buddy he or she ever had.

This is as good as having your own bartender. The Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker comes in three models -- Bahamas, Key West and Fiji. The Key West (shown here) automatically shaves the ice and blends your fave ingredients for your drinks.

What I love the most is you don't have to stand by the machine all night. You can party, too. The machine can be pre-programmed to shave and blend up to three drinks. Suggested retail price is $299.99.

The Bahamas ($199.99) makes 36 ounces in one step. And the Fiji ($379.99) includes four settings to make margaritas, daiquiris, slides and smoothies. For more info see margaritavillecargo.com
