SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 19, 2013--
With this week’s introduction of a Piña Colada Smoothie, Jack in the
Box® restaurants is sending a deliciously tempting signal that summer is
almost here. Even if Ma Nature tosses a few more snowballs or soaks a
few May Day parades, Jack in the Box guests need only venture to or thru
their nearest restaurant for a refreshing tropical break.
Available in 16- and 24-ounce sizes, the new Piña Colada Smoothie
delivers the unbelievable flavor of tropical piña colada through a blend
of Minute Maid® fruit juice and nonfat frozen yogurt. It joins the
restaurant chain’s line of Real Fruit Smoothies that includes Mango,
Strawberry and Strawberry Banana.
“Our new Piña Colada Smoothie is a great way to evoke all of the
pleasures associated with this tropical drink, from relaxing in an
exotic paradise to partying poolside with family and friends,” said
Iwona Alter, Division Vice President of Menu Strategy at Jack in the
Box. "Jack in the Box offers a lot of variety when it comes to
beverages, and for guests looking for a refreshing drink that’s rich in
flavor and lighter than one of our Real Ice Cream Shakes, Fruit
Smoothies are a great choice.”
