Not sure about the mixer.
I have the "milkshake" type mixer on the bar. I have an icer attachment on my Oster vintage beehive mixer and I crush it all into an ice bucket in advance. I keep an ice pick close by if I need to fix the crushed ice that freezes solid.
I plan to have a micro fridge for the juices, etc. I decided a full fridge was too and the smaller ones that make ice can't make enough to matter. The ice bucket is here to stay, so just a small fridge for mixers is best. I plan to incorporate it into the actual bar someday.
I can mix the drinks in the metal mixer cup and it holds 2 or 3 big mugs full with crushed ice.
Crushing ice is generally a loud affair, so I do it ahead of time in large quantities.
