To coincide with the upcoming release of the [DreamWorks Animation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nutriburst) feature film, The Croods: A New Age, Jamba is introducing [two colorful new smoothies for kids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ohana-breeze-smoothie). The Sash's Splash and Croodaceous Cooler share a full serving of fruit or vegetables—the Sash's Splash Smoothie has a full serving of fruit from orange, mango, pineapple and dragon fruit, while the Croodaceous Cooler boasts a half serving of fruit and a full serving of vegetables from nutritious ingredients like banana and carrot. Both of these new smoothies are being served in limited The Croods: A New Age cups.

Sarah Marjoram, MS, RDN, LD, Nutrition Expert and Strategic Advisor of Jamba, says: "Our two newest kids' menu items will not only help children get their daily fruits and vegetables, but both are excellent sources of vitamins A and C, antioxidants that help support immunity."
