"Whether you 're completing a morning workout or finishing up finals week, getting a smoothie is the perfect way to celebrate no matter the occasion! Jamba doesn 't have a large presence in Santa Barbara, which I quickly found out soon after moving here for undergrad. Instead, there 's a local chain when it comes to blended drinks... and it 's a hundred times better. You have the option of customizing your own smoothie or choosing from their pre-set menu. Most of their blends are a mix of fruits, juice, and sherbet/yogurt/ice milk. Every drink comes with one free supplement. You can add chia seeds, probiotic, calcium, antioxidants, etc. Pre-COVID, I loved their reusable cups and how they would give a small discount for bringing it in. My all time favorite has to be Blue Banana, which is a creamy concoction of milk, blueberries, banana, and ice milk . Great consistency, decently sweet, and super refreshing. Peanut Butter is a close second, which is an indulging blend of chocolate, peanut butter, milk, banana. It 's super sweet, basically a milkshake. I don 't know if they still use ice cream to make their creamy smoothies, but that 's probably why it 's super delicious. Drink responsibility and in moderation. Happy New Year!"
