DALLAS, Sept. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Smoothie King is making it easier to live a vegan lifestyle with the new Vegan Mixed Berry Smoothie, available nationwide today: a meal-replacement, plant-based wellness blend featuring the exciting addition of Califia Farms® Oat Milk.

"Smoothie King has always been about fueling our guests' healthy lifestyles, and we're excited to offer a new way to support their wellness goals," said Smoothie King CMO Rebecca Miller. "The Vegan Mixed Berry is the perfect meal replacement to help guests remain committed to plant-based living."

WHAT'S INSIDE
Smoothie King's lineup of vegan smoothies are a guest favorite, but the Vegan Mixed Berry offers a new and unique twist with the addition of Califia Farms® Oat Milk. This popular, non-dairy alternative – which can be substituted into any smoothie on the menu – is made with gluten-free oats and has a smooth and naturally-creamy taste guests love.

Along with Califia Farms® Oat Milk, Smoothie King's Vegan Mixed Berry Smoothie is made with whole strawberries, wild blueberries, raspberries, banana, super grains, Sunwarrior® organic plant-based protein, apple blueberry juice blend and pear juice blend. It has 13 grams of protein and half the recommended daily fiber in a 20-ounce serving.

"As more people seek vegan-friendly options, Smoothie King is here to offer a variety of wholesome and convenient plant-based smoothies to help fuel their health and wellness journeys," said Miller.
