Drinking extension for blender container

A blender system, comprising:

• a mixing base having a means for rotating a shaft, a recessed well positioned at a top of the mixing base, a pressure-actuated switch positioned about the periphery of the recessed well, and one or more locking grooves;
• a container body comprising an opening at a first end and a closed second end;
• the container body being tapered and having a standing element at the second end;
• the container body having a substantially smooth circumferential extension at the first end proximal to the opening;
• said extension sized so that a user's lips will engage only the extension when drinking from the container body;
• one or more locking members in spaced relation about a periphery of the opening of the container body, wherein the locking members are engageable with the locking grooves;
• an attachment element on the exterior of the container body positioned between the extension and the locking members;
• and
• a means for agitating contents of the container body, the means selectively attachable and removable from the opening of the container body via the attachment element.

A blender container, comprising:

• a container body having an opening at a first end and a standing element at a second end, said container body having a hollow interior and being substantially tapered at said second end;
• at least one handle coupled to the exterior of said container body;
• a ring-shaped ridge positioned distal to the opening and protruding from the exterior of said container body;
• at least one locking member disposed in spaced relationship about a periphery of said ring-shaped ridge;
• a container base rotatably coupled with one or more blades for agitating contents contained in said hollow container body interior;
• and
• a substantially smooth circumferential extension integrally formed into the container body, proximal to the opening.

A blender container, comprising:

• a hollow container body being open at a first end and closed at a second end, said hollow container body provided with at least one interior ridge, and a substantially smooth circumferential extension integrally formed into the container body at the first end, proximal to the opening, said extension sized so that a user's lips will engage only the extension when drinking from the container body;
• and
• a container base adapted to blend the contents of said hollow container body when operatively coupled to said first open end;
• and
• means for locking said operatively coupled hollow container body and container base to a mixing base.

A blender container, comprising:

• a mug-like body being tapered at one end and open at the other end;
• at least one substantially elongated ridge disposed on the interior of said mug-like body;
• a container base with at least one blade adapted to agitate contents within said mug-like body;
• a substantially smooth circumferential extension integrally formed into the mug-like body at the open end;
• and
• means for operatively locking said mug-like body to a mixing base.

A blender container comprising:

• a substantially cylindrical container body with a first end having an opening and a closed second end, an attachment element positioned between the first and second ends, a substantially smooth circumferential extension adjacent the attachment element and proximal to the opening, said extension ranging in length from approximately 0.125 inches to approximately 1.0 inches, a standing element proximal to the second end;
• and
• a container base that is selectively attachable and removable from the container body via the attachment element, and
• a sealing element to form a tight seal between the container base and container body when attached together.

A method for using a blender system, comprising:

• placing ingredients to be mixed into a container body having an attachment element and an extension between the attachment element and the open end of the container body;
• attaching a container base having agitating means to the container body via the attachment element;
• placing the container base into the recessed well of a mixing base;
• engaging the motor of the mixing base to turn the agitating means of the container base to mix the ingredients;
• removing the container body and container base from the mixing base;
• turning the container base so that the open end faces upwards;
• removing the container base from the container body;
• placing the user's lip on the extension, and;
• drinking the mixed ingredients.
