Abstract: A thermally insulated blender is comprised of a thermally insulated cover and container. The container has a bottom opening in which is sealably mounted a rotatable vertical driven shaft in a sealed bearing assembly. A base unit has a motor mounted within a housing. The top of the housing is adapted for receiving the bottom of the container in operating position. A vertical driving shaft extends from the top of the motor through an aperture in the top of the housing and engages the driven shaft in the container. A blade assembly on the driven shaft coacts with the contents of the container when the motor is actuated. Cold mixtures will remain cold in the container for prolonged periods.
