Getting My Smoothie On At Smoothie King

Last week a group of Omaha Bloggers were invited to try Omaha’s new smoothie shop: Smoothie King!

Have you ever heard of Smoothie King before? It’s a national brand that is dedicated to making smoothies with a purpose. They have different blends for all your different needs. They have fitness smoothies, slim smoothies, wellness smoothies, energy smoothies, and just plain old indulgent smoothies.

Smoothie King just opened up in Omaha and I was so excited for the opportunity to check it out. I love a good smoothie!

One of the things that immediately caught my eye is that there is a drive-through! Hello, easy summer dinner on my way home from work!

Holy smoothies! Smoothie King has SO many options. They have virtually every kind of fruit smoothie, kale smoothies, vegan smoothies, and a variety of different protein powders for all your nutritional needs. They even have smoothies made with Greek yogurt! And ALL their smoothies are made from real fruit.

I had a blast tasting all the flavors. Lemon Twist Strawberry was my favorite! It’s made from strawberry, lemon, and papaya. We tried it made skinny, which means making it without the turbinado sugar and eliminating 100 calories. (Making a 20 oz smoothie only 298 calories!) It was so delicious.

My other favorite was on the total opposite of the health spectrum. The Hulk Vanilla is made from butter pecan ice cream and bananas and was actually created for cancer patients that needed help gaining weight quickly through easy-to-stomach foods. It’s so good! It’s like a milkshake. One very high calorie milkshake. 😉 Thank goodness we were just trying sample sizes!

While we sampled we took a lot of pictures. And had fun catching up over yummy smoothies. 😀

Smoothie King really does have a smoothie for every taste. And now that we are entering summer, we are hitting prime smoothie season! A hot summer day is always better with a cold refreshing smoothie.

Smoothie King also makes their own brand of veggie chips and sells the protein powders they use in their smoothies! So you can make your own smoothies at home!

    I think Orange Ka-Bam looks good. I’m always up for a Vitamin C boost. I’ve never been there, thanks for the great Omaha restaurant info!

    I’ve never had Smoothie King before, I’m not sure there’s one in our area. But I have been a big time fan of Robeks juice. It seems quite similar and I am absolutely obsessed. I could eat (drink?) smoothies all day every day! I would probably want to try the Hunk Vanilla it sounds absolutely delicious. I always say go big or go home! Although, I don’t think I could finish one of those 40oz cups haha. Hope you have a great day!

    I’ve never been but I just looked it up and there are some Smoothie Kings kind of near me! I think the Peanut Power + Chocolate or the Apple Kiwi Kale both sound amazing 🙂

    Smoothie King is good; we had them all around MD and VA when I lived there. I just tend to make mine at home because I can skip all the added sugar. That drive thru makes me so nervous bc I can see it being backed up forever since there are so many options! I would be too indecisive haha.
