Since my mom purchased her Vitamix, we rarely go to smoothie king. But for years, we personally kept smoothie king open and in business. I’ve had smoothies from this franchise in different states. I know the stores have specific ways to prepare each smoothie because the tastes of the smoothies are generally the same no matter which store you visit. With that being said, I’ve learned to ask for certain smoothies to be sweetened a little more than how they usually prepare them. Some stores charge me extra for sweetening a smoothie that should already be sweet, some do not. This particular store doesn’t charge. This is my second trip to this store. Had different people make the smoothies, but both were sweetened to perfection! When I come back to this area, I’ll be sure to visit again!
