Bay Area Fro-yo Smoothie Recommendations

Fro-yo girl here. In a recent Fro-yo Girl reader survey, fro-yo smoothies were the most popular choice (43%) and followed by fro-yo parfaits (29%). After my Jamba Juice phase, I think I’m done with smoothies for life. Fro-yo adds a new twist to smoothies though. Here are a few of my picks for fro-yo smoothies in the Bay Area.

* BLUSH ORGANIC FROZEN YOGURT: Called the Blush Blend, this smoothie includes your choice of juice, two types of fruit, and premium organic fro-yo. These items are blended with ice and out comes your delicious Blush smoothie. Their smoothies are so good because their fro-yo is so delicious.

* RED MANGO: Their smoothies, called Blenders, are one of the few that can include non-fruit options. You choose the fro-yo flavor and any three toppings. They add ice and blend. You can even get cereal and mochi balls in your blender. I like to stick with tart berries but the cereal options are fun (especially Fruity Pebbles).

* CEFIORE: They have a really good green tea fro-yo smoothie. It’s made with green tea fro-yo, green tea powder, milk, and ice. It was creamy with tiny icy bits, a little sweet and refreshing.

* TUTTI FRUTTI DANVILLE: You can build your own fro-yo smoothie here. I’ m not brave enough to do it but they offer the greatest freedom to create your own smoothie. Choose as many fro-yo flavors and toppings as you want, they weigh it (it’s 38 cents an ounce) and blend it.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
