How To Order From The Jamba Juice Secret Menu
Most Jamba Juice employees know many of the Secret Menu recipes, especially the popular ones, so all you need to do is ask. However, if it is a particularly obscure or experimental drink, or if you get an inexperienced server, just bookmark the recipe below and whip out your phone the next time you are at Jamba Juice … if they aren’t too busy with other customers, Jamba Juice employees will generally oblige. And, as always, don’t forget to tip your drink-maker!
Equipment Needed To Make At Home
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 White Gummi Bear Smoothie At Home
The Jamba Juice Secret Menu White Gummi Bear smoothie is very easy to make:
- Step 1: Place mangoes, peach juice, soy milk, lime sherbet, orange sherbet, pineapple sherbet, raspberry 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
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.
Whole peaches can be substituted for the peach juice, just add a little water to maintain consistency.
Almond milk or coconut milk can be substituted for the soy milk and still keep this delicious smoothie dairy-free.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions
Jamba Juice, a popular chain that offers smoothies, juices, and bowls, is known for its official menu but also has a “secret menu” which is an unofficial list of drinks that many locations will make if you ask for them. These drinks have been created and popularized by fans and employees over the years. As with any “secret menu” at any establishment, it’s important to note that not all locations or employees may be familiar with these items. Therefore, it’s helpful to know the ingredients of the drink you’re requesting just in case the staff isn’t familiar with the name.
Soy milk is not inherently fattening. Like all foods and beverages, it’s the overall context of your diet and your total daily calorie intake that determines weight gain or loss. Soy milk is made from whole soybeans or soy protein isolate, and it typically contains about the same amount of protein as cow’s milk. Calorie-wise, unsweetened soy milk contains roughly 80 to 100 calories per cup, which is comparable to skim or low-fat cow’s milk.
