Q.  How much is it to rent a machine from Island Breeze Frozen Drink Rentals?

A.  Our average price is $110.00, which includes a single frozen drink machine, One ½ gallon bottle of mix, 50 - 10oz. cups, 50 straws, our 5-gallon mixing container, a heavy duty Rubbermaid cart (if needed), a salt rimmer (if needed), and an extension cord (if needed).  A Double machine is also available at a rate of $160 which includes Two ½ gallon bottles of mix.  Each additional bottle of mix is $20.00.  We usually leave 1 extra bottle of mix as a "just in case" at no charge unless it is used.  Any unused, unopened bottles we leave are returnable.  Therefore, it is better to be prepared than short on mix supply and close the party early. We offer local delivery/set-up/pick-up (an additional charge for delivery outside of our local delivery area may apply).

 

Q.  Are the machines easy to use?

A.  Yes! At delivery we show you step by step the machine operation and refilling procedures to ensure a successful event.   Easy to follow instructions are always left behind for reference.  We mix your first batch and show you how to use the machine.

Q.  How many drinks does one 1/2 gallon batch yield?

A.  One 1/2 gallon batch of mix makes about 75 8oz. drinks. Our real fruit non-alcoholic 1 gallon slushey mix will provide 80 8oz. drinks. Our experience shows that usually half or more guests drink the frozen drinks even if you offer a choice. We recommend one batch for every 25 frozen beverage drinkers.

Extra mix is $20.00 or $30.00 and are refundable if unopened.

 

Q.  How long does the first batch take?

A.  Indoors about 30-45 minutes, outside on warm days, up to an hour and half. There is no waiting between batches because you add to the reservoir when the mix becomes low.

We usually arrive 2 hours before your event to set-up.

 

Q.  Who provides the liquor and how much will I need?

A.  The customer provides all liquor.  We will tell you the type and amount of liquor to purchase at the time of reservation. Please have liquor available when we deliver.

 

Q.  Are other kinds of mixes available?

A.  Absolutely. You can serve Margaritas, Strawberry Daiquiris, Strawberry Margaritas, Pinã Coladas, Peach Bellinis, Hurricanes, Mai Tai, Sangria, Hard Lemonade, and Rum Runners. Mixes/ Mixing Instructions

WE ALSO HAVE REAL FRUIT KID SLUSHES AVAILABLE!

 

Q.  How far in advance should I reserve my machine?

A.  We recommend 4 weeks or earlier for holiday seasons and traditional party dates like Halloween and New Years Eve. A second machine or double machine is strongly recommended for large parties, otherwise the machine will not perform properly.
