ABSTRACT:
A machine (10) for dispensing beverages of substantially uniform consistency containing shaved ice is provided and includes a housing (14), a blending assembly (12, 13), a plurality of receptacles 20 disposed within an upper housing portion (15), and a plurality of valves (39) and a manifold (22) in fluid communication with the plurality of receptacles (20) for delivering a measured volume of a selected drink mix to the blending assembly (12, 13). The machine also includes an ice shaver (21) located in the housing for delivering a precise amount of shaved ice to the blending assembly (12, 13). The ice shaver includes the rotating ice shaving blade (36) that is controlled to rotate through a predetermined number of revolutions, to thereby consistently deliver a predetermined quantity of shaved ice to the blending assembly (12, 13) irrespective of a hardness of the ice (19) being shaved.
