Red Mango rolls out smoothies, parfaits
March 15, 2010
Red Mango is expanding its menu with a new line of probiotic smoothies and made-to-order parfaits at participating locations nationwide. Inviting customers to Re-Think Lunch, Red Mango is targeting a hungry lunch crowd of customers who want calorie-conscious meals that are both delicious and nutritious.
"It's all about giving the customer choices," Dan Kim, president and CEO of Red Mango, said in a news release. "Sometimes health can take a backseat when grabbing a meal on the run. That's why we are encouraging customers to re-think yogurt and consider Red Mango a lunch-worthy option."
Red Mango parfaits are made-to-order in two combinations that include the company's proprietary original frozen yogurt, fresh fruit and organic flax seed granola. The Mixed Berry parfait is layered with fresh blueberries, strawberries and bananas, while the Tropical parfait offers pineapples, bananas and mangos. Both parfaits are all-natural, nonfat and packed with healthy Omega-3s.
Red Mango smoothies, offered in four flavors - Strawberry Banana, Tropical Mango, Acai Berry and Pomegranate by POM Wonderful - are made with fresh fruit and naturally sweetened with zero-calorie Stevia. Both parfaits and smoothies are around 300 calories, and have all of the benefits of Red Mango yogurt, including GanedenBC30, a patented type of probiotic exclusive to Red Mango.
Parfaits and smoothies join Red Mango's all-natural line of nonfat frozen yogurts and probiotic iced teas. The frozen yogurt flavors include original, Pomegranate by POM Wonderful, Tangomonium, and the seasonal flavor Cocoa, all around 100 calories per serving. Probiotic teas are available in Lemonocity, Mysteaque and Fanteasia, also all under 100 calories per serving.
