Recently, I was contacted by a PR company representing Jamba’s new line of all natural make at home versions of their smoothies. I have been a big fan of Jamba for a while. Also, I am a smoothie lover. I love to have a smoothie to start my day off. So of course I was totally on board when they asked me if they could send some samples for me to try. They have 3 varieties for Jamba Smoothies at Home – Razzmatazz®, Mango-a-go-go® or Strawberries Wild®.
Jamba All Natural Smoothies contain real fruit, non-fat yogurt, and an antioxidant boost with 100% of your Daily Value of Vitamin C.
Each serving is fat-free, provides one full serving of fruit, and contains 0mg cholesterol and 120 calories or less when prepared as directed. Each package makes two, eight-ounce servings and retail for retail price of $2.99 to $3.29. The only thing you need to add to the product to make them is apple juice, which I always have laying around my house. The packages also each have a $1 coupon off a smoothies at the Jamba retail locations. They’ve at home versions have already begun to arrive at a number of grocery retailers such as Albertson’s, Meijer, Costco, etc.; and Walmart will begin carrying them nationwide this month.
I have tried similar products before and have not been impressed.
I did however, love the Jamba Smoothies at home. My favorite was the Mango-a-go-go. It tastes amazing. My second favorite was the Strawberry Wild. I decided to try to orange juice in place of the apple juice, delicious! I have included the recipe below for that. On both of these flavors of smoothies, I did need to add more juice that listed on the package to get them to mix in my blender. The package calls for 8 oz. of apple juice and I probably used closer to 12 oz. of juice.
The last version I made was the Razzmatazz and it was my least favorite. I also made it with the larger amount of juice figuring it was just like the other to favors. This however, was a runnier version and was too runny with the larger amount of juice. Next time I will try the one with the recommended 8 oz of juice listed on the package for the Razzmatazz flavor.
I loved the smoothies and can’t wait to find them in a store near me. Jamba has also been nice enough to give me some coupons for free smoothies along with a $1 off coupons. I will be giving away coupons for free smoothie packages along with a $1 off coupons to to 8 lucky readers.
