— May 31, 2023 — Lifestyle
The Jamba Tropical Dragon Twist is being launched at participating locations as an exotic, fruit-forward menu item for patrons to try out this summertime as a satisfyingly refreshing option. The recipe can be ordered as either a Smoothie or a Bowl, which both boast mango and passionfruit-flavored pear juice blend along with mangos and organic dragon fruit. The Tropical Dragon Twist Smoothie also features raspberry sherbet for a touch of additional sweetness, while the Tropical Dragon Twist Bowl is enhanced with blueberries, banana, coconut flakes and organic granola.

The Jamba Tropical Dragon Twist is being launched now, but will only be available for a short while. The smoothie and bowl recipes are expected to be a must-try amongst avid fans this summertime.

Trend Themes
1. Exotic Fruit Smoothies - The rise of more adventurous smoothie flavor combinations, especially those that include tropical or uncommon fruits like dragon fruit, presents an opportunity for cafes and juice bars to attract health-conscious consumers seeking a unique taste experience.
2. Organic and Vegan Options - As consumers become increasingly concerned about the environmental and ethical impact of their food choices, there is potential for food and beverage companies to develop and market products that prioritize organic and vegan ingredients, as seen in the Jamba item's use of organic dragon fruit and plant-based sherbet.
3. Seasonal Offerings - Introducing limited-time menu items, like the Jamba Tropical Dragon Twist, can create a sense of urgency and excitement among consumers who may feel more motivated to visit a restaurant or cafe to try a novel dish or beverage before it disappears from the menu. This can also generate social media buzz for the brand, which may attract new customers.
Industry Implications
1. Fast Casual Restaurants - Fast-casual restaurants and chains can seize on the demand for healthful, innovative menu items to compete with traditional fast food establishments and improve customer loyalty and retention.
2. Smoothie and Juice Bars - Smoothie and juice bars can differentiate themselves by offering a wider variety of fruits and flavors, such as dragon fruit, to appeal to customers seeking unique and flavorful beverages with health benefits.
3. Organic and Vegan Food Brands - Organic and vegan food brands can reach a growing market of health-conscious and environmentally-aware consumers by emphasizing the use of organic, plant-based ingredients and creating new and interesting dishes like the Jamba Tropical Dragon Twist.
