Food & Wine's Editorial Guidelines Published on June 12, 2024 Close Photo: Smoothie King There’s a new way to consume boozy fruit this summer. Say goodbye to the painstakingly hollowed-out watermelon keg, spirit-soaked pineapple slices and alcoholic ice pops that never quite freeze correctly, Smoothie King is offering up an innovative new way to slurp up some spiked smoothies. Introducing: The Smoothie Keg, a DIY innovation that brings the party to your home. This limited-edition keg, created exclusively for Smoothie King, allows you to create a batched cocktail with the ease of blending fruits, organic vegetables, and your choice of spirits. It's the ultimate convenience for your summer gatherings. Smoothie Recipes to Kickstart Your Day Smoothie King doesn’t sell alcohol, so the chain is offering customers the opportunity to get lit after leaving its stores. Starting June 12, The Smoothie Keg will be given away for free as a special gift with the purchase of a Smoothie Six-Pack, while supplies last. This exclusive offer is only available at select locations, chosen for their summer party scene notoriety: Brooklyn, New Orleans, Las Vegas, and more. Smoothie King's keg is big enough to hold six smoothies. Smoothie King The keg is also a promo for Smoothie King's new Smoothie King Six-Pack, which can be toted into a party instead of a six-pack of beer or seltzer — the ideal refreshing mixer or mocktail, with vitamins! The six-smoothie package can be curated with six different flavors, including Gladiator Chocolate, Angel Food, Peanut Power Chocolate, Pineapple Surf, Caribbean Way, Banana Boat, and more. Smoothie Recipes to Kickstart Your Day Making frozen cocktails without a blender can truly be a luxury. All six smoothies can be dumped into the Smoothie Keg, mixed with alcohol, and dispensed for outdoor drinking for all to enjoy. We’re thinking of some kind of coffee liqueur and vodka with the Gladiator for a riff on a Mudslide, rum and coconut with pineapple for a fun piña colada twist, and mezcal to mix with the papaya and strawberries in the Caribbean Way… the options are endless. Ten locations in ten different cities across the country are participating in the smoothie keg giveaway.
