Smoothie Yearning? That’s Cool. Visit San Francisco’s Cool Cravings

If it sounds too good to be true, it’s absolutely wonderful when it is true.

Smoothies made with natural ingredients are wonderful for you. The health and natural foods community has known this for years. Overtime, smoothies just keep getting more creative and tasty.

This thick and creamy beverage typically made from pureed raw fruit, vegetables, and sometimes dairy products typically using a blender makes for the perfect breakfast pick me up.

A smoothie containing dairy products is similar to a milkshake, though the latter typically contains less fruit and often uses ice cream or frozen yogurt.

The healthfulness of a smoothie depends on its ingredients and their proportions. Many smoothies include large or multiple servings of fruits and vegetables, which are recommended in a healthy diet and intended to be a meal replacement. However, fruit juice containing high amounts of sugar can increase caloric intake and promote weight gain.

So it’s like any food that you consume. Look at the ingredients.

San Francisco has an abundance of everything and we are so glad we live close to it. It is no surprise that this very youthful, hip and cool city has some incredible smoothie shops.

Cool Cravings in one of them.

Please join us in doing something that we have loved to do for decades. Let’s take a walk through hilly San Francisco and meet them.

That sounds so good we are craving their offerings already. They have many satisfied customers. Here are two reviews found at Yelp:

“Pretty darn good place! We walked here between appointments, and I am glad we chose it. Super friendly, happy staff. Even when the place gets REALLY crowded! They have such fresh, flavorful sandwiches! They also have a juice and smoothie bar.”

And another.

“Fresh juice. End of review. Ha, wish I could leave a review that short truly, this place is so good and is one of the few places in San Francisco that still provides fresh squeeze juice; don't let the other places fool you... after 30 minutes most of the nutrients in the fresh juice ate gone, so come here for the real thing!”

See what we mean? If you are in San Francisco, this is a great eatery to chill out at.

Smoothies have been on our mind in our personal lives but part of what stimulated our thinking was the partnership between one of our favorite NFL quarterbacks in Drew Brees and a sensational smoothie company in Smoothie King.

Here you heard about it?

Well now you have. Have fun Listen in.

Smoothie King And Drew Brees Team Up To Promote Healthy, Active Lifestyles

DALLAS, Jan. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Smoothie King, the world's leading smoothie brand, will further its mission to inspire guests to live healthy and active lifestyles with a little help from Drew Brees.

Through the new relationship, Brees will introduce Smoothie King's Cleaner Blending recipes, focusing on delicious smoothies with high-quality ingredients and more whole fruits and vegetables. The smoothies are custom blended to inspire a healthy and active lifestyle, with no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, gluten, trans fats or hydrogenated oils, and with zero grams of added sugar in many blends.

"Smoothie King's commitment to provide high-quality, nutritious, and great-tasting smoothies fits into my daily goals of leading a healthy and active lifestyle," said Brees. "Whether you are setting a fitness goal, a weight-loss goal or simply trying to eat better, Smoothie King can help you achieve your healthy and active lifestyle goals. That's something I can really get behind."

Brees is a world-class pro football athlete at the top of his game. He is in his 18^th season in the league and holds the professional records for career pass completions, completion percentage and passing yards. He is second in career touchdown passes, third in regular season passer rating and fourth in postseason passer rating. Brees has accomplished all this while also being a busy and involved dad of four.

Smoothie King is teaming up with Brees to show everyone how delicious and convenient healthier eating can be. Brees said, "My favorite smoothie really depends on the time of day. The Immune Builder® Mixed Berry is one of my favorite smoothies, but I am a fan of greens with the Vegan Mango Kale, and the Coffee High Protein Almond Mocha is a great way to start my day."

"We chose Drew because he's an inspiration to our guests through his healthy eating habits and active lifestyle, not only as a professional athlete, but also on his personal journey with his wife and four growing kids," said Smoothie King CEO Wan Kim.

Fans and guests can follow Brees and learn more about the new relationship on Twitter and Instagram @drewbrees and on Facebook @DB9nfl and www.smoothieking.com/brees.
