Some frozen protein shakes are 3 to 8 ounces and include at least 10 grams of protein, less than 200 calories, and a majority of ice crystals smaller than 50 μm.

A two-liquid container capable of mixing solutions, including a container main body having a storage space in which first contents are stored, and having an upper part and a lower part that are open; a rotational assembly which is coupled to the lower open part of the container main body and in which second contents are stored; and a pipette assembly screwed to a screw thread formed on the outer circumferential surface of the upper open part of the container main body. The present invention exhibits an effect of coupling the rotational assembly filled with the second contents to the lower end of the container main body filled with the first contents so as to facilitate mixing of first and second contents by the rotation the rotational assembly.

A lid, a disposable cup with the lid, and a blending machine for use with the lid and cup which is particularly well-suited for use in a self-service blending environment where material is initially provided in unblended form in the disposable cup, is blended in the disposable cup, and the disposable cup is used by the end user during consumption of the material. The lid is designed to allow for a blade assembly of the blending machine to pass through the lid and into the cup without it having to be removed.

A method for operating a drink maker within a vehicle. The method includes placing a cup on a seating associated with a heating mechanism, the cup containing a liquid and an essence, wherein the liquid and the essence are separated by a ring-shaped partition, automatically sensing a presence of the cup on the seating, turning on a heating mechanism for warming the liquid, sensing a temperature relating to the temperature of the liquid, and turning off the heating mechanism upon sensing a first predetermined temperature, mixing the liquid and the essence and inserting a stirrer through the ring upon warming to a second predetermined temperature lower than the first predetermined temperature, stirring the liquid with the stirrer, and removing the cup from said seating.

Systems and methods have demonstrated the capability of rapidly cooling the contents of pods containing the ingredients for food and drinks.
