Instead of shelling out $80-$200 on a Magic Bullet Blender [1] (a personal-sized blender), blogger The Domestic Heart [2] shared this incredible tip for hacking your own on Hometalk [3]. If you have a blender with a detachable blade base (many blenders do to make cleanup easier), simply screw the base into a mason jar filled with all your smoothie ingredients and attach it to your blender. Blend until smooth; unscrew the base; and enjoy your personal smoothie in the mason jar! Take a look at the complete step-by-step photos for turning your blender into a Magic Bullet [4] for more instructions. If you want to take it a step further and pack the smoothie for later, screw on a Recap mason jar lid [5].
