“My favorite smoothie of all-time. I lOVE raspberries and this shake is simply perfect. When I make it at home, I throw in some frozen raspberries as well.”
~ Jennifer N.
Razzmatazz, a copycat Jamba Juice smoothie recipe, is a popular drink that has been served since the first Jamba Juice location opened. The berry juice makes it quite sweet which is why it is a favorite among children. However, the sweetness is balanced nicely by the creamy banana base followed by the familiar citrus tang from the orange sherbet … a wonderful summertime smoothie and a long-time Jamba tradition.

Key Ingredients
The Jamba Juice Razzmatazz smoothie ingredients are:
- bananas
- strawberries
- raspberry juice
- orange sherbet

Health Benefits
Bananas – Bananas are very healthy, readily available, and one of the least expensive fruits you can buy. They have relatively few calories, are rich in nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium, are full of potent antioxidants including flavonoids and animes, and are high in dietary fiber. Studies have shown that bananas can improve insulin sensitivity and may improve kidney health.

Strawberries – Strawberries are a flavorful staple of many healthy smoothies and shakes. They are an excellent source of several important antioxidants and beneficial plant compounds including pelargonidin, ellagic acid, ellagitannins, and procyanidins. Strawberries are widely known to decrease the risk of heart disease, help regulate blood sugar, and reduce the risk of certain cancers.

Raspberry Juice – Raspberries are a popular seasonal fruit that are actually a member of the rose family. They are packed with vitamin C and manganese and also provide several B vitamins, vitamin E, and vitamin K. Raspberries are very high in antioxidant plant compounds that protect against cell damage and can help reduce your risk of various chronic diseases.

Orange Sherbet – Oranges are the most popular of all citrus fruits. They are absolutely packed with vitamin C and provide significant amounts of the flavonoids hesperidin and naringenin as well as carotenoids beta-cryptoxanthin and lycopene. Oranges promote healthy immune function, boost heart health, and have been shown to prevent anemia.
Equipment Needed
A standard blender is all that is required to make these delicious smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.
If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.
For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.
How To Make The Jamba Juice Razzmatazz Smoothie
The Jamba Juice Razzmatazz smoothie is very easy to make:
- Step 1: Place bananas, strawberries, raspberry juice, orange sherbet, and crushed ice into a blender and secure the lid.
- Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
- Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
- Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.
Recipe Tips And Substitutions
For ease of use, we recommend peeling and slicing a number of bananas, putting them in a freezer bag, and storing them in your freezer for quick access.
If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.
Plain sherbet can be substituted for orange sherbet without significantly changing the flavor profile.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions
What do antioxidants do?
Antioxidants play a crucial role in protecting the body’s cells from damage caused by harmful molecules known as free radicals, which can lead to cell dysfunction and the development of chronic diseases. By neutralizing these free radicals, antioxidants help maintain the integrity of cells and reduce the risk of conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.
Is sherbet healthy?
Sherbet, while lower in fat than ice cream, often contains high amounts of sugar, which can contribute to health issues like obesity and diabetes when consumed in excess. However, it can provide some nutritional benefits if it includes real fruit, as this contributes vitamins, minerals, and fiber, but overall, it should be considered a treat and eaten in moderation.
