National Smoothie Day 2026

Protein-Packed Chicken Flatbreads

Pickle lovers, this one’s for you. As temperatures rise and hydration takes center stage, Smoothie King is partnering with Grillo’s Pickles to debut a first-ever limited-edition Pickle Smoothie – a bold, culture-driven flavor designed for those who love pickles so much they could drink them. The Smoothie King x Grillo’s Pickles Smoothie is available at Smoothie King stores now for a limited-time.

Pickles have officially emerged as one of the hottest ingredients in today’s food culture and beyond their bold, craveable flavor, pickles also offer nutritional benefits. This one-of-a-kind Pickle Smoothie blends real Grillo’s Pickles with Smoothie King’s delicious and nutritious ingredients like bananas, organic kale, and coconut water, delivering a refreshingly tangy taste and packed with electrolytes to help support hydration all summer long.

The Smoothie King x Grillo’s Pickles Smoothie is available now for a limited time for $5.99 for a 20oz smoothie. To celebrate International Pickle Day on May 16, guests can also enjoy a FREE 4oz Pickle Smoothie, available in stores while supplies last.

This unexpected collaboration brings together the best of both brands, pairing Grillo’s chill vibes with Smoothie King’s expertly crafted recipes. With over 50 years of expertise, Smoothie King designs each recipe from the ground up working with their nutritional experts to balance nutrients and flavor. The brand has done the nutritional work so you don’t have to, so all you need to do is chill out and drink a pickle smoothie this summer. Plus, staying hydrated is kind of Smoothie King’s thing.

“At Smoothie King, every recipe starts with delicious nutrition in mind,” said Lori Primavera, VP of R&D and Product Marketing at Smoothie King. “Pickles are not only delicious and having a cultural moment, they also offer real nutritional benefits, especially known for their enhanced hydration. That combination gave us an opportunity to explore them in a new format and push our innovation into new territory, reimagining how a beloved flavor can deliver both function and taste.”

Made with simple, garden-fresh ingredients and no artificial anything, Grillo’s Pickles are known for their bold flavor, making them the perfect complement to Smoothie King’s thoughtfully crafted recipes.

“We love to do unhinged collabs at Grillo’s. With that, we don’t always get to talk about the functional benefits of pickles. When we partnered with Smoothie King for a hydration smoothie, we knew this was a great opportunity to do both. Those who are willing to try will be pleasantly surprised (and hydrated).”

said Mark Luker, Chief Commercial Officer.

Smoothie King is driven by a deep commitment to care for its guests and communities and guided by its vision to make the world a better place by nourishing healthy habits. With over 50 years of expertise, the brand has remained committed to making nutrition delicious, continuing to push the boundaries of what a smoothie can be through new and unexpected flavor innovations.

Doubling down on hydration, watermelon is also back at Smoothie King, rejoining menus nationwide today. Sip your summer with five new watermelon smoothies, thoughtfully crafted and packed with electrolytes to keep you refreshed. The lineup includes fan-favorite Watermelon Hydration, alongside blends like Watermelon X-Treme, Gut Health, and more.

Yes, we made a pickle smoothie. And we made it with Grillo’s Pickles, blending their actual pickle spears straight from the jar into every single cup we serve. If that combination stopped you mid-scroll, we understand, because that’s the kind of bold, purposeful creativity we’ve been committed to delivering for more than 50 years of blending with intention.

This isn’t a novelty for the sake of attention. The Pickle Smoothie is packed with natural electrolytes, contains 0g added sugar, and is made with no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Everything you’d expect from one of our blends, wrapped around an ingredient that athletes and pickle enthusiasts have trusted for decades. Briny, refreshing, and purpose-built for the post-workout crowd who already reaches for pickle juice after a hard run, this blend delivers real function in every sip.

What’s Actually in the Pickle Smoothie?

We partnered with Grillo’s Pickles because their ingredient philosophy aligns directly with our own long-standing Clean Blends Promise. No dyes, no preservatives, and no shortcuts, just garlic, dill, salt, and fresh cucumbers packed in small batches the way they’ve always done it. Rather than using a flavor extract or pickle-flavored powder, we blend their actual pickle spears into every cup, which gives this smoothie a genuine texture, depth, and character that you can taste from the very first sip.

Here’s what you’ll find in every cup:

This isn’t the first time we’ve leaned into an unexpected flavor partnership to push the boundaries of what a smoothie can be. Previously, we collaborated with Heinz on a tomato ketchup smoothie, and the enthusiastic response from our guests confirmed that our community is genuinely ready for blends that challenge the familiar and break the mold in meaningful ways.

Why Does a Pickle Smoothie Even Make Sense?

Pickle juice has quietly been one of the most trusted recovery tools in the athletic community for decades, used by marathoners, CrossFit athletes, and endurance competitors long before it found its way into mainstream wellness conversations.

We built this blend with active guests in mind, because electrolyte loss during physical exertion is real, cumulative, and often underestimated by people who assume hydration means simply drinking more water. We launched our hydration-focused menu category last year in direct response to guests who kept asking us for more purposeful ways to replenish after training. Ways that didn’t rely on sugary sports drinks loaded with artificial ingredients that contradict their health goals.

The Pickle Smoothie fits naturally alongside our other purpose-driven blends, serving as a compelling sidekick to a recovery routine and a particularly relevant option for runners training for major events like the TCS New York City Marathon, where we’re proud to serve as the official smoothie partner and to support athletes at every stage of their training journey.

Who Should Try It?

How Does It Taste?

The Pickle Smoothie drinks as briny, tangy, and cool as you’d hope, with a touch of unexpected sweetness from the fruit that rounds out the flavor in a way that might genuinely surprise you, even if you’re already a confirmed pickle fan who thought you knew exactly what to expect. The Grillo’s spears bring real dill and garlic notes that give the blend its character and depth.

Because we didn’t want to mask the pickle or soften it into something unrecognizable, we wanted to feature it honestly and let Grillo’s quality speak for itself in every cup we pour. For guests who grew up reaching for the leftover brine at the bottom of the jar, this blend will feel like a natural evolution of something they already love. For guests who have never tried pickle juice before, this is a thoughtfully crafted and purposeful introduction to a flavor profile that has earned its place in the wellness conversation.

Why Choose Smoothie King

We’ve been the original purpose-driven smoothie bar since 1973, and our Clean Blends Promise is the foundational commitment that has kept guests returning to us across generations, through menu evolutions, and through every bold new direction we’ve taken as a brand that genuinely believes a smoothie should do something meaningful for the person drinking it. We don’t use high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, artificial flavors, or preservatives in any of our smoothie blends. And that standard applies just as firmly to innovative limited-time offerings like the Pickle Smoothie as it does to our most iconic menu staples like the Gladiator, which delivers 45g of protein per serving.

What sets us apart is a commitment that hasn’t changed in over five decades: we blend with purpose, we tell you exactly what’s in your cup with full transparency, and we stand behind every blend we serve. Because if you don’t love your smoothie, we’ll blend you another one.

FAQs

Is the Smoothie King Pickle Smoothie really made with Grillo’s Pickles?

Yes, we use Grillo’s actual pickle spears in every cup. Not a flavor syrup, a pickle-flavored powder, or a brine concentrate. Because we believe that using real, high-quality fruit is the only approach that’s consistent with the Clean Blends Promise our guests have come to expect from us. Grillo’s crafts their pickles with fresh cucumbers, garlic, dill, and salt, with no artificial preservatives, and we blend those spears directly into each smoothie so you experience genuine pickle flavor and texture in every sip rather than a processed approximation.

How much does the Pickle Smoothie cost?

The Pickle Smoothie is $5.99 for a 20-oz cup at participating Smoothie King locations, and guests enrolled in our Healthy Rewards loyalty program can earn points on every purchase to apply toward future blends as part of their ongoing smoothie routine.

Does the Pickle Smoothie have any added sugar?

No. The Pickle Smoothie contains 0g added sugar, because we built this blend specifically for guests who want effective hydration and natural electrolyte replenishment without the sugar load that typically comes with conventional sports drinks and recovery beverages. Any natural sweetness present in the blend comes entirely from real fruit like bananas, with nothing artificial added at any point in the blending process.

Can a pickle smoothie actually help with hydration?

Yes, the sodium and potassium naturally present in the pickle brine and spears function as electrolytes that help your body rehydrate more efficiently after sweating. This blend supports post-activity recovery in the same way athletes have relied on pickle juice for decades, just in a more purposefully crafted and significantly more enjoyable format than drinking straight brine from the jar.

Where can I order the Pickle Smoothie?

You can order the Pickle Smoothie at participating Smoothie King locations through our app, through our online ordering platform, or in person at the counter. And we encourage guests to use our store locator to find the nearest location offering this limited-time blend.

Conclusion

The Pickle Smoothie isn’t designed to appeal to everyone, and we’re genuinely comfortable with that, because it was built for a specific guest: the athlete who needs electrolytes after a hard effort, the pickle enthusiast who has always believed brine deserved a better showcase, and the curious sipper who wants to experience what 50+ years of purposeful blending experience can produce when applied to an ingredient that most smoothie brands would never dare to feature. Made with real Grillo’s pickle spears, delivering 0g added sugar, and containing no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, it represents exactly the kind of bold, purpose-driven innovation that has defined who we are since 1973. Visit your nearest Smoothie King location, order a Pickle Smoothie with a blend that proves purpose and creativity don’t have to be mutually exclusive.

Our delicious watermelon smoothies are back for a limited time this Summer 2026, and we’ve brought back our fan-favorite watermelon blends specifically to help you cool down and stay hydrated with the kind of refreshment that genuinely tastes like summer in every sip.

If you’ve been waiting all year for that first refreshing taste of cold, fresh watermelon blended into a smoothie, we’re happy to tell you the wait is officially over. Our seasonal watermelon lineup is built entirely around real fruit, zero artificial flavors, and the kind of deep, lasting hydration your body actually needs when the temperature starts to climb.

We don’t approach summer halfway, and we don’t think you should either. Which is exactly why we made sure this lineup was worth the wait.

Why We Brought Watermelon Smoothies Back for Summer 2026

Our guests made it clear that watermelon is one of the most beloved seasonal flavors we’ve ever offered, and after hearing that enthusiasm year after year, Summer 2026 felt like exactly the right moment to give this fan-favorite the spotlight it deserves.

Watermelon is roughly 92% water, making it one of nature’s most naturally hydrating fruits available. Pairing that with our Clean Blends Promise of no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial colors, no GMO fruits or vegetables, gives you a smoothie that does far more than simply taste good on a hot afternoon. Our delicious watermelon smoothies are available as a limited-time offering, meaning once summer winds down, they’ll be off the menu until next season arrives, so we genuinely encourage you to take advantage while they’re here.

What’s in Our Watermelon Smoothies?

Every blend on our menu is built with a clear purpose in mind, and our watermelon smoothies are absolutely no exception to that standard. Here’s a closer look at what makes them work so well as a seasonal offering:

Our Clean Blends Promise required more than five years and over 15,000 hours of dedicated research and development to perfect, and during that process, we reformulated more than 150 individual ingredients to eliminate anything we wouldn’t feel confident serving to our own families. And that same exacting standard applies to every watermelon smoothie we blend this summer.

Pair It With a Power Eats™ Item

Watermelon brings more hydration to your routine, while protein brings the sustained satisfaction that keeps you going through your busiest summer days, and together they create what we consider a genuinely complete summer meal worth looking forward to. We encourage you to try any of our delicious watermelon blends alongside one of our new Power Eats™ food menu items, such as a Loaded Avocado Toast with 11 grams of protein or a Loaded Peanut Butter Toast with 15 grams of protein.

Our Watermelon Smoothie Lineup

Whether you’re chasing hydration, gut health, post-workout recovery, or a meal that actually keeps you full, there’s a watermelon blend here for you. Each smoothie in our summer lineup is purpose-built with real benefits so you can pick the one that fits your day and enjoy something that genuinely tastes as good as it makes you feel.

Hydrate Your Soccer Summer

Summer soccer season starts soon, and whether you are on the pitch or cheering from the stands, staying hydrated is non-negotiable.

Soccer demands everything from your body. Ninety minutes of sprinting, cutting, and competing at full intensity means your hydration strategy matters as much as your training. That is exactly why Watermelon Hydration was built the way it was. Packed with electrolytes and zero grams of added sugar, it replenishes what competition takes out without the crash that comes from sugar-loaded drinks.

This summer, as the world tunes in to the greatest sporting event on the planet, make Smoothie King your go-to stop before the game, at halftime, and after the final whistle. The delicious watermelon lineup was made for a summer like this one.

Why Choose Smoothie King

We’ve been blending purpose-driven smoothies since 1973, when our founder Steve Kuhnau first began crafting them to actively improve his own health outcomes, and that founding story continues to inform every decision we make about what goes into our menu. Every blend we serve is built specifically around your goal, whether that goal is fitness performance, weight management, general wellness, sustained energy, or simply enjoying a satisfying treat you can feel good about.

What genuinely sets us apart from other options is our absolute refusal to cut corners when it comes to ingredients, which is why our No-No List formally excludes artificial flavors, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, GMO produce, trans fats, gluten, and any NSF-banned substance from every product we offer. When you order from us, you’re not getting a sugar-loaded drink with hidden ingredients. You’re getting a smoothie with a purpose, backed by decades of expertise and a genuine commitment to your wellbeing.

FAQs

How long will watermelon smoothies be available?

Our delicious watermelon smoothies are a limited-time offering available throughout Summer 2026 while supplies last. We don’t publish a specific end date because availability can vary by location and overall seasonal demand. Our experience with past limited-time blends tells us these offerings tend to sell out before the official end of summer arrives. We recommend ordering through our app or visiting your nearest location soon to make sure you don’t miss out on the season’s most refreshing blend.

Can I customize my watermelon smoothie?

Yes, you can add nutritional enhancers, including whey or plant-based protein, energy boosters, immune support, or additional fiber to any watermelon blend we offer. You can also adjust your serving size, swap the base ingredient, or pair your smoothie with one of our Power Eats™ food menu items to build a more complete and satisfying summer meal.

Do watermelon smoothies have added sugar?

Many of our watermelon smoothies contain 0g of added sugar, with all of their natural sweetness coming directly from real fruit rather than added sweeteners, which works particularly well with watermelon since the fruit is already naturally sweet on its own. We always encourage you to review the detailed nutritional information available in our app for whichever specific blend and customizations you select, so you can make the most informed choice for your goals.

Where can I order a watermelon smoothie?

You can order any of our watermelon smoothies at any of our locations across the country or conveniently through the Smoothie King app for pickup or delivery, and our website’s store locator will help you find the nearest location quickly. If you’re a Healthy Rewards member, you’ll earn points on every order you place, so we’d encourage you to sign up before your next visit if you haven’t already done so.

Conclusion

Our delicious watermelon smoothies are back for Summer 2026, and they won’t be available for long. So we want to make sure you have every reason to try one before the season ends. We built this limited-time lineup exactly the same way we build everything else on our menu: with real, purposeful ingredients, a clear commitment to your health goals, and absolutely zero artificial shortcuts anywhere in the process.

Whether you’re cooling down after a morning run, recharging the family after a long afternoon at the pool, or simply craving something refreshing and genuinely satisfying, we have a watermelon blend that was made with you in mind. Order through the Smoothie King app or visit your nearest location today before summer has a chance to slip away.

Smoothie King, driven by a deep commitment to care for its guests and communities and guided by its vision to make the world a better place by nourishing healthy habits, is marking the beginning of the next chapter in its rich history by introducing a new brand evolution plan. The new plan is designed to build on its continued momentum, reinforce category leadership, and accelerate long-term growth. With more than 200 new store commitments, over 1,500 available trade areas in its development pipeline and a newly expanded food menu, Smoothie King is investing in its future and setting the foundation for its next 50 years of growth. Built around a deep commitment to care – for guests, their health journeys, and the communities it serves – the new brand evolution introduces a transformed in-store experience and expanded menu offerings, all rolling out over the coming year. This also includes a new “The Best Kind of Delicious” brand campaign and De-Dupe program to spotlight that when it comes to your health and building healthy habits, no one should take shortcuts.

In 1973, Smoothie King introduced a new category to the world, coining the term “smoothie” and establishing its leadership from the start. Since then, the brand has remained committed to making nutrition delicious. Nutrition can feel overwhelming, but Smoothie King has done the nutritional work so you don’t have to. With over 50 years of expertise, the brand has a unique approach that no one has been able to replicate, designing each recipe from the ground up and working with their nutritional experts to balance nutrients and flavor.

To celebrate its legacy and over 50 years of expertise, Smoothie King is introducing the Smoothie De-Dupe Program, inspired by the rise of “dupe culture” where consumers may embrace lookalikes across fashion, beauty, and beyond. You can dupe many things, but Smoothie King reminds consumers that when it comes to health and building healthy habits, you shouldn’t take shortcuts. Smoothie King is inviting guests to bring in a receipt from any other smoothie purchase and “de-dupe” it by trading them for smoothies supporting healthy habits. The program runs today through Thursday, April 23.

“This brand evolution is about building on what we started more than 50 years ago and reinforcing the role only Smoothie King can play in the category we created,” said Gavin Felder, President of Smoothie King. “We’ve always crafted every recipe with intention and care – balancing great taste with clear nutritional benefits – and that foundation continues to guide how we grow. By expanding our menu, investing in our in-store experience, and innovating in partnership with our franchisees, we’re strengthening our leadership position while building a powerful platform ready to scale for our next 50 years.”

Smoothie King’s new brand evolution is grounded in consumer insights and performance data, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to caring for and listening to its guests. As consumer expectations evolve, Smoothie King is doubling down on what sets it apart: thoughtfully crafted recipes and doing the nutritional heavy lifting so you can focus on feeling your best, as Smoothie King offers the best kind of delicious. The new brand evolution brings the same level of care behind every smoothie to the in-store experience, design, and every touch point to ensure every guest feels cared for from the moment they walk in.

“At the heart of this evolution is a deep understanding of what our guests want and need from us today,” said Claudia Schaefer, Chief Marketing Officer at Smoothie King. “Through extensive research and feedback, we’ve redefined how we show up across every touchpoint – from our menu to our messaging to the in-store experience – to better reflect our care and vision to make the world a better place by nourishing healthy habits.”

This evolution marks a pivotal moment for Smoothie King as it builds on a legacy of innovation while setting the foundation for its future. With a growing footprint, an expanding menu, and a renewed focus on guest experience, the brand is leading the category into its next era.

Between back-to-back meetings, school pickups, and everything in between, eating well is usually the first thing that falls through the cracks. You grab whatever is fast. You skip meals. You tell yourself you’ll do better tomorrow.

Sound familiar? You’re not alone.

The good news is that building better nutrition habits doesn’t require a complete lifestyle overhaul. Small, consistent choices add up fast. And with the right tools in your corner, eating better can actually fit into a busy schedule instead of fighting against it.

Here’s how to make it work.

1. Stop Skipping Breakfast

Skipping breakfast feels like a time-saver. In reality, it usually backfires. When you start the day without fuel, your energy crashes before noon, your focus takes a hit, and you’re far more likely to overeat later.

A solid morning meal doesn’t have to take 30 minutes to prepare. It just needs protein, some whole fruits, and enough calories to carry you through the morning.

A Smoothie King blend is one of the fastest ways to check all those boxes. Options like the Gladiator® pack 45g of protein in a 20oz serving with 0g added sugar. Grab it on your commute, and you’re already ahead.

2. Build Meals Around Protein

Protein is the most filling macronutrient. It keeps you satisfied longer, supports muscle recovery, and helps regulate blood sugar so you’re not crashing mid-afternoon.

Most people don’t get enough of it, especially on busy days when meals get skipped or replaced with whatever is convenient.

A simple habit: anchor every meal or snack around a quality protein source. That could be eggs in the morning, grilled chicken at lunch, or a high-protein smoothie when you don’t have time to sit down for a real meal.

Smoothie King’s Get Fit Blends and Power Eats lineup are built for exactly this. Whole fruits, real protein, no junk.

3. Keep Hydration Simple

Dehydration is sneaky. It disguises itself as hunger, fatigue, and brain fog. A lot of the mid-afternoon slumps people blame on their schedule are actually just dehydration.

The habit is straightforward: drink water consistently throughout the day. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty. Keep a bottle at your desk, in your car, and in your bag.

Smoothies also contribute to hydration, especially those made with whole fruits and real liquid bases. They’re not a substitute for water, but they help. Try our Hydration Berry smoothie at your nearest Smoothie King.

4. Plan for the Moments When Things Fall Apart

The problem with most nutrition plans is that they only work when life cooperates. The real habit to build is knowing what you’ll do when it doesn’t.

What do you reach for when you’re late, stressed, or just completely out of energy to cook? If the answer is fast food or vending machines, that’s the gap to close.

Having a few reliable go-tos solves this. A Smoothie King location near your commute, a few go-to menu items you actually like, and the Smoothie King app to order ahead. That’s a plan. It takes minutes and keeps you on track even on the worst days.

5. Don’t Overcomplicate It

Most people fail at nutrition not because they lack knowledge, but because their approach is too rigid. They go all-in, burn out, and go back to old habits.

The more sustainable strategy is to make small, repeatable choices that don’t require a perfect day to execute.

Eat something real in the morning. Get protein at lunch. Drink water. When you’re in a pinch, choose something that makes you feel good over something convenient-but-terrible.

That’s it. Consistency over perfection, every time.

6. Read What’s In Your Food

This one takes about 60 seconds and changes how you shop and order. High fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, and artificial preservatives are in more products than most people realize. And they’re doing your nutrition goals no favors.

Smoothie King’s Clean Blends Promise means every smoothie on the menu is free from the stuff that doesn’t belong: no high fructose corn syrup, no hydrogenated oils, no artificial colors or flavors, no trans fats. Over 15,000 hours of research and development went into making sure of that.

When you choose Smoothie King, you already know what’s in the cup.

7. Use Tools That Work With Your Life

The biggest nutrition mistake busy people make is trying to build habits that require a lot of time and effort. Meal prepping every Sunday sounds great in theory. For most people, it lasts two weeks.

Better habit: lean on tools that remove friction.

– Download the Smoothie King app to order ahead and skip the wait

– Use the Fuel Finder on the Smoothie King website to find the right blend for your specific goal, whether that’s energy, weight management, recovery, or general wellness

– Join Healthy Rewards to earn points every time you make a smart choice

The easier it is to execute, the more likely you are to actually do it.

The Bottom Line

You don’t need more willpower. You need fewer barriers.

Easy nutrition habits are just that: easy. Eat something in the morning. Get your protein. Drink your water. Know what you’ll grab when time runs out. Read your labels. Use tools that make the right choice the simple choice.

Smoothie King exists to support exactly this kind of lifestyle. With 1,200+ locations nationwide, a menu built around whole fruits, and blends designed for every goal, there’s no reason eating well has to be hard.

Find your nearest Smoothie King and start building habits that actually stick.

Sometimes you want more than just a smoothie, but you don’t want to overthink your order or overspend. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast on the go, powering through a busy afternoon, or rewarding yourself with something delicious, finding the right balance of taste, value, and convenience matters.

That’s exactly where Smoothie King’s Fruit Classic Smoothies Bundle comes in. This limited-time bundle lets you pair a crave-worthy smoothie with a satisfying Power Eats™Loaded Toasts, all in one easy order.

The launch comes as demand for yogurt continues to grow, with consumers purchasing yogurt 9% more than last year, driven largely by increasing interest in Greek yogurt and protein-rich foods.

Smoothie King continues to build on its protein-forward offerings, kicking off the year with the introduction of the 100g Protein Pack. With protein remaining a top priority for many guests, the brand is expanding menu choices that deliver high protein benefits while remaining both delicious and nutritious.

“Protein continues to be one of the top things our guests look for, and we’re always listening to that feedback,” said Lori Primavera, Vice President of RD & Product Marketing at Smoothie King. “With our new High Protein Greek yogurt lineup, we wanted to create options that offer a high protein boost, incorporate wholesome ingredients like real, non-GMO fruit and Purely Elizabeth granola, and give guests an easy way to enjoy balanced, great-tasting menu items throughout the day, knowing Smoothie King has already done the nutritional work.”

Like all Smoothie King smoothies and menu items, these recipes were developed with care. With 50 years of expertise, the brand approaches smoothies differently, relying on its in-house nutritional experts to thoughtfully balance nutrients and flavor and create products that are both delicious and nutritious.
