~ Chris

Green Gummy Bear, an unofficial Jamba Juice Secret Menu smoothie recipe, is one of the five secret gummy bear smoothies you can order at Jamba, the others being Blue, Pink, Red, and White. The Green variety tastes both sweet and tart, using peaches, lemonade, and two sherbets, but has a gummy-like creamy texture from the soy milk. An awesome tribute to a very popular candy treat!

Equipment Needed To Make At Home

Smoothie Making Tools
Smoothie Making Tools

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 Green Gummy Bear Smoothie At Home

The Jamba Juice Secret Menu Green Gummy Bear smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place peaches, lemonade, soy milk, lime sherbet, pineapple sherbet, and 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

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.

Almond milk or coconut milk can be substituted for the soy milk and still keep this delicious smoothie dairy-free.
