Fro-yo girl here. Last year, Melissa, the founder of Yoga-urt, created a new flavor, Papa’s Boysenberry Pie, to honor her father. This year, she created a flavor in honor of her mom’s favorite dessert (other than Yoga-urt): Nana’s Lemon Meringue Pie. Nana’s Lemon Meringue Pie is made with real lemons, marshmallow crème, and the Yoga-urt house almond/cashew base. I think I tasted graham crackers too or maybe shortbread cookies?
The new flavor launched on November 20, her mom’s birthday. So sweet.
I love lemons and I am now obsessed with the new lemon flavor. It’s the tartest and tangiest Yoga-urt flavor. Cookies and marshmallow crème make it taste like more than lemons, but the froyo isn’t that sweet because it’s so tangy. Like other Yoga-urt flavors, it is organic, soy-free, gluten-free, vegan, etc.
Yoga-urt has locations in Glendale, Echo Park, Santa Monica, and Granada Hills.

Fro-yo girl here. I wasn’t planning on getting froyo today, but then I saw the new flavor announcement from Yoga-urt. Yoga-urt locations are swirling the new Mindful Matcha Latte flavor this weekend only. It’s made with Frauth matcha, a ceremonial grade matcha from Japan. The flavor is available at all the Yoga-urt locations through November 10, unless they run out before then.
As a matcha lover, I was impressed by how strong the matcha flavor was and the soft serve (aka vegan froyo) was so smooth and rich. It also wasn’t too sweet! If you’ve had Yoga-urt’s Green Tea Tranquility, Mindful Matcha Latte has a stronger matcha flavor and is a darker green. Try it with Strawberry Serenity and fresh strawberries.
Go get some while you can. Yoga-urt is in Kenneth Village (Glendale), Echo Park, Santa Monica, and Granada Hills.

There are two new froyo flavors this month, HI-CHEW Key Lime Pie and Caramel Apple Pie.
HI-CHEW Key Lime Pie froyo joins a long list of HI-CHEW flavors at Menchie’s. I love key lime pie and HI-CHEW. The texture of this frozen yogurt is like a sorbet. It doesn’t taste or eat like a froyo. That aside, the key lime flavor lacks tang and is more candy like. It’s decent. This flavor is nonfat, gluten-free, and made with no artificial flavors, no artificial flavors, and no high fructose corn syrup.
Caramel Apple Pie froyo was inspired by Thanksgiving. It’s made with real graham crackers and apples. I could taste the caramel, cinnamon, and the apples. I found it unpleasant and strange for some reason. But it was creamy.
The new Chip Falling for Froyo spoons were delayed but finally arrived. The brown spoons feature Chip and it says Falling for Froyo on the handle. These look like fall spoons.
Menchie’s will be honoring vets and active duty military on Veterans Day with 6 oz free. Also, app members can enjoy double smiles on November 12 & 13. And the holiday bonus card offer is back. Spend $25 in gift cards and get a $5 bonus card for free.

Fro-yo girl here. The holidays have arrived at Yogurtland in a big way. First, there’s a new flavor, Peppermint Fudge Brownie, frozen yogurt. It’s described as “a rich, fudgy brownie flavor that meets refreshing peppermint for a winter wonderland in every bite.” I think that’s accurate. It is rich and more fudgy than minty. I could taste the mint though.
To pair with the new froyo, there’s a new topping, mini gingerbread men cookies. The cookies are thick and crunchy. They’re dusted in sanding sugar.
There’s a new holiday cup design that features three different gingerbread men, the Yogurtland logo, and a green background of snowflakes, candy canes, hearts, peppermint candies, and gingerbread cookies.
The new gingerbread man spoon is gingerbread colored. On the back of the spoon, it says Happy Holidays.
The new holiday sticker sheets feature gingerbread men, a Christmas tree, candy cane, peppermint candies, a Yogurtland spoon, gingerbread cookie, and Yogurtland logo. The images look similar to the ones on the holiday cup.
Everything is available for a limited time only, while supplies last.

Snickerdoodle Cookie frozen yogurt: It’s no secret that I prefer tart froyo, but I liked this flavor. The texture was very smooth, creamy, and light, but it still felt satisfying without being heavy or too rich. The cinnamon flavor wasn’t too strong, and it wasn’t crazy sweet. The shortbread crumbs were a perfect crunchy topping though I do wish the crumbs were larger. Recommended toppings: nuts, shortbread cookie crumbs, dark chocolate crisps
Pinkberry recommends topping Snickerdoodle Cookie frozen yogurt with cinnamon dusted shortbread crumbs and chocolate chips.

Golden Cereal froyo made with Cap’N Crunch cereal is bright yellow, like the color of Cap’N Crunch cereal. It was also very icy. I think it’s the fault of the location, Menchie’s Mission Hills. Menchie’s froyo is usually not that icy. I tried a few flavors there and they were all icy. Maybe it’s because it was over 100 degrees, but I told the employees and they said the yogurt looked fine to them. It tasted like sweet caramel syrup. Golden Cereal froyo is lowfat and made with no artificial flavors and no high fructose corn syrup. Recommended toppings: nuts, Cool Whip, strawberries.
Yumm Bubble Gum froyo did smell and look like your classic pink super sugary bubble gum. I can’t imagine eating gum let alone a cup of gum-flavored froyo. I overheard a young child call it “gross” and I have to agree. Who thought of creating this flavor? Yumm Bubble Gum froyo is nonfat, gluten-free, and made with no artificial colors, no artificial flavors, and no high fructose corn syrup. Recommended toppings: I can’t think of any because this flavor is awful.
The featured flavors are available while supplies last, for a limited time only.
I also got the new The Wild Robot cups that promote an upcoming movie called The Wild Robot. The movie will be in theaters on September 27, 2024.
Menchie’s also had a back-to-school special with double points for app members who scanned the app on September 3 & 4.

Fro-yo girl here. Pinkberry just introduced its fall froyo flavor, Green Apple froyo. They call it a new flavor, but I had the chance to try Green Apple froyo at Pinkberry back in 2016. It was a test flavor at the time. I liked it back then and I wrote, “The Green Apple Pinkberry froyo flavor is good, lighter and smoother than ice cream, the flavor is tart and tangy (quite tangy) with lots of bright apple flavor and a sweet finish that seems to have a hint of pear. The yogurt flavor is in there but not prominent.”
I’m not sure if the flavor that I had was the same as the one I had in 2016, since that was a long time ago. However, I would describe what I had today in the same way. It’s a smooth, light, tangy, bright froyo flavor, but it doesn’t have much yogurt flavor.
Pinkberry recommends pairing Green Apple froyo with honey granola, caramel, and cinnamon. I think it would be great with mochi, strawberries, and toasted almonds.
Green Apple froyo is available at participating locations while supplies last or until October 31.

Fro-yo girl here. I just enjoyed a swirl of Yoga-urt’s new flavor, Papa’s Boysenberry Pie. This special flavor is the first new flavor Yoga-urt has introduced since since 2021’s Café De Olla (unless you count the naturally sweetened/no sugar added versions of a few existing flavors).
Papa’s Boysenberry Pie isn’t just any new flavor. It was created in honor of Melissa’s father (Melissa is the founder of Yoga-urt) who passed away in March. His favorite dessert was boysenberry pie. Papa’s Boysenberry Pie combines his favorite dessert with his favorite froyo. Stu was more than Melissa’s dad. He also helped out at Yoga-urt, acting as the unofficial CFO and a tireless mentor.
Papa’s Boysenberry Pie (vegan, plant-based, organic, soy-free, gluten-free, froyo): Boysenberries are a hybrid of several berries, including loganberry, dewberry, raspberry, and blackberry. I’m not sure what dewberries or loganberries taste like, so boysenberries taste like mostly like blackberry to me. Papa’s Boysenberry Pie froyo tasted sweeter than some of the other Yoga-urt flavors. It definitely tastes like berry but not exactly like blackberry or raspberry. I thought I tasted some type of crust too, but I’m not sure. The yogurt was luscious, fresh, thick, rich, and smooth. Recommended toppings: cake pieces, nuts, fresh berries
