Im having a large fiesta style party in August, and I really dont want to be stuck at the blenders all night making margaritas. Ive heard that margarita machines are a pain, but the rental place says you just put in the mix and alcohol and it freezes it and keep it moving. It seems like it would be convenient, but I turn to the wonderful ppl of Yahoo answers for opinions! Thanks for any input!!!!!

I cant make that much in advance, too many ppl and I like them to stay frozen.
FYI Hot Dog~I drink mine on the rocks and handmade. Im hiring a bartender for the party, but she's gets too bogged down w/ blending....

I rented two for my wedding reception and I didn't have any problems. I had margaritas in one and strawberry daquiris in the other.Just make sure to set it up a few hours in advance so it will get totally frozen. Also if the bartender needs to refill it don't wait until it's totally empty, and refill a little at a time so you don't end up with unfrozen drinks. Have fun!

Hey make them up in advance... place in a large container and scoop out as necessary... you will have to make the frozen kind for the ladies... lol
Have the glasses all salted or sugared (depends on the type of margarita)... bars make these up ahead of time ALL the time... lol
Have fun

We rent a machine every year for our organization's luau. We get the one that serves 2 different drinks. It is a 'God send'! It works like a charm and the guests love the drinks. If you are on the fence about renting one....I give it a thumbs up.
