Goodbye Jamba Juice Whirl’ns

Fro-yo girl here. I realized I hadn’t had a mix-in style frozen yogurt recently so I dropped by Jamba Juice to see what was new with their frozen yogurt line, Whirl’ns, powered by Yogen Fruz. Whirl’ns were made to order with fresh fruit and other ingredients including your choice of frozen yogurt base. My Jamba Juice location no longer offered Whirl’ns. I called a few other Jamba locations and learned that they’ve made the decision to quietly phase out Whirl’ns.

Whirl’ns was introduced Whirl’ns in Northern California in December 2010 and expanded to additional locations in 2011. They had a few seasonal flavors like Great Pumpkin and Wildly Watermelon.

Whirl’ns is still available at some locations but probably not for that much longer.

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

First Day of Fro-yo Summer

Fro-yo girl here. It’s summer, the prime season for frozen yogurt. It’s also the perfect time to try some new summery frozen yogurt flavors, including:

* TCBY: TCBY has partnered with Dole to bring you fruity flavors like Strawberry. The new flavor is made with Dole fruit.
* PINKBERRY: I tried Pinkberry’s Summer Strawberry and it’s excellent. It’s smooth, rich and creamy with a little tartness.
* YOCREAM: Their Strawberry Lemonade Sorbet is tart, juicy and extra refreshing. I love the combination of lemon and strawberry.
* BEN & JERRY’S: Try Strawberry Shortcake from their new Greek frozen yogurt line.
* JAMBA JUICE: The new summer flavor, Wildly Watermelon Whirl’ns frozen yogurt is available for a limited time only.
Don’t forget, June is National Frozen Yogurt Month. Keep those spoons active!
