1. What does a margarita machine rental from Frosty Cactus include?

When you rent from Frosty Cactus Margarita Machine Rentals, you receive commercial-grade margarita or slushy machines built for parties and events. We deliver the machine, set it up, provide premium frozen drink mixes, and pick everything up after your event. You only need to add alcohol if desired, and we provide all instructions for simple self-serve operation.

2. How many flavors can I choose for my event?

Our high-volume commercial machines have two flavor bowls, allowing you to serve two frozen drink options at once. This means you can offer one classic margarita flavor and one slushie or non-alcoholic flavor to please every guest.

3. How far in advance should I book my margarita machine rental?

We recommend booking at least 2–3 weeks in advance, especially for weekends, holidays, graduation celebrations, Cinco de Mayo, and summer pool parties. Popular dates fill quickly, so early reservations help ensure you get the machine you want.

4. Where does Frosty Cactus deliver?

Frosty Cactus delivers margarita machine rentals throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Maricopa, Glendale, Queen Creek, Paradise Valley, Apache Junction, Fountain Hills, Cave Creek, and surrounding Arizona areas. Delivery fees may apply for locations far from our headquarters.

5. Will the machine be ready when guests arrive?

Yes. Our team delivers and sets up your machine ahead of time so the first batch is ready to serve when your party begins. Margarita machines typically take about 90 minutes to fully chill and achieve the perfect frozen consistency before serving.

6. Do I need to provide alcohol or cups?

Alcohol is not included with the rental. If you want alcoholic margaritas, you will need to supply your own alcohol. We have recipes, just ask. Most people use tequila, rum, vodka or other spirits, or wine for sangria or frose. Frosty Cactus can recommend quantities based on guest count. You will also need to provide your own cups.

7. Can I serve non-alcoholic drinks from the machine?

Absolutely. All Fro­sty Cactus mixes are non-alcoholic by default, so you can make frozen lemonade, fruit slushies, Dirty Sodas, and virgin margaritas easily. This makes our machines perfect for family-friendly events and celebrations where kids or non-drinkers are present.

8. How many guests will one machine serve?

The exact number depends on your drink size and guest preferences, but dual-flavor, high-volume machines from Frosty Cactus can serve dozens of frozen drinks throughout your event. For large celebrations, corporate field days, weddings, and festivals, additional machines can be added to ensure no one waits in long drink lines. Experts often recommend one machine for every 75–100 guests for busy events with heavy drink demand.

9. Do I need ice to run the machine?

No ice is required. Margarita machines from Frosty Cactus use the provided mix and water to freeze the drinks directly inside the machine. This saves time and eliminates the need to supply large quantities of ice.

10. What power and space requirements are needed?

Our machines run on a standard 110-volt outlet typical in event locations and homes. We recommend a dedicated power source and a sturdy, level surface for the machine. If you are hosting outdoors in warm weather, placing the machine in shade helps maintain ideal freezing performance.

11. Can the machine be used outdoors?

In cooler months yes, in hot summer months, no. Margarita machines can be used outdoors in lower temperatures as long as they are placed on a level surface and protected from direct sun. A shaded patio or tent area helps the freezing performance and keeps drinks at the perfect temperature even in sunny Arizona conditions.

12. Who cleans the machine after the event?

Frosty Cactus handles all cleaning and sanitization after your party. All you need to do is turn off the machine when your event ends and leave it ready for pickup. Our team takes care of the rest.

13. What flavors are available?

We offer a wide selection of about 30 premium frozen drink flavors. Choose classic margarita favorites like lime or strawberry, or go for crowd-pleasing options like mango, piña colada, and more. You can also mix and match combinations for variety and fun.

14. Can I rent machines for more than one day?

Multi-day rentals may be available upon request. Contact Frosty Cactus Margarita Machine Rentals with your event details, and we will work with you to arrange extended rental options if needed.
