Rapper 2 Chainz and Smoothie King partner up to open a kiosk inside the State Farm Arena in time for the Atlanta Hawks NBA draft party. Long-time smoothie lover 2 Chainz is teaming up with long-time Smoothie King and friend Philip Jones for this venture. For the first time, Atlanta sports and entertainment fans can enjoy smoothies at events in the arena. The new kiosk will be revealed on June 26th during the Atlanta Hawks NBA draft party.
Fans can choose from Smoothie King's most popular blends, including Angel Food, Gladiator Vanilla, Caribbean Way, and more. As part of the Clean Blends™ initiative, Smoothie King's menu includes only whole fruits and vegetables, with no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, and zero grams of added sugar in most of the smoothie options. Smoothie King now also offers smoothie bowls to cater to health-conscious consumers.
