A blender is a kitchen appliance that mixes and purees food and drinks. It's usually a big plastic jug with blades inside that chop up whatever you put in it.

You probably use a blender to make smoothies or juices from your favorite fruits and vegetables. Many people also use blenders to puree cooked meals for their babies, like mashed sweet potatoes or carrots. Blenders are great for making frozen drinks, like piña coladas or margaritas, but be careful not to add too much ice! You can also blend soups or sauces to get rid of lumps and make them smooth and creamy. Some people even use blenders as food processors, chopping nuts or herbs for recipes. Whatever you're making, just remember to follow the instructions and clean your blender regularly so it keeps working well.
