Pumpkin Lovers Unite: Smoothie King's New Fall Smoothies Debut September 8

DALLAS, Sept. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Autumn is a much-anticipated time of year because as the leaves start to fall, excitement begins to build for the arrival of pumpkin season. This year, Smoothie King is giving its guests a whole-new reason to celebrate with its lineup of organic pumpkin smoothies and the addition of Califia Farms® Oat Milk to the menu.

For a limited time, Smoothie King is offering a better-for-you spin on the classic fall flavor with the Vegan Pumpkin, Pumpkin Coffee High Protein, Slim-N-Trim™ Pumpkin and Pumpkin D-Lite® Smoothies.

"There are a lot of pumpkin beverages out there, but so many use sugary syrups and fake stuff," said Smoothie King CMO Rebecca Miller. "By using organic pumpkin puree and real natural spices, it gives our guests a better way to get the pumpkin taste they love."

Know Your Pumpkin Promo
The fall fun doesn't end with new smoothies, though. To help promote its new seasonal offerings, Smoothie King is challenging its guests with the "Know Your Pumpkin" online quiz.

From September 8-10, the first 50 guests to answer all 14 questions correctly will be rewarded with free smoothies for a year*. The questions will center on fun pumpkin facts and Smoothie King's commitment to using high-quality, clean ingredients.

Additionally, anyone who completes the quiz – regardless of correct answers – will receive a reward for a free, 12 oz. pumpkin smoothie of their choosing, redeemable through September 17 with Smoothie King's Healthy Rewards app.

Don't hesitate for your chance to win a year of free smoothies, take the quiz here: www.smoothieking.com/pumpkin.
