What Kind of Blender Does Starbucks Use?

Very often, we are asked by customers, "What kind of blender does Starbucks use? That's the blender we want!" For years, Starbucks used a Blendtec blender, but the coffee giant eventually switched over to Vitamix, which created a blender specifically for Starbucks' needs. Today, you'll see the 48-ounce Vitamix Blending Station Advance, better known as "The Quiet One, " in nearly every Starbucks you go to around the world.
