I've always been shaking mine... BUT! I'm learning just what a great blender can do. I've just made my usual double Mai Tai recipe, then... instead of shaking... I tossed it into my new blender... hit "pulse" a couple of times and... OH NO! It's too frothy!... hold on... the froth dissipates quickly and I've got beautiful, broken, clear, icy-ice! The standard straight-from-the-automatic-refrigerator-ice-cube-dispenser cubes have transformed into something of of real beauty! Slightly slivers, slightly chunks! And the drink is very, very cold and wonderful to the lips, the tongue... and I'm in Tiki heaven! Mr. Bongo, time for another!
