Pineapple Ginger Delight™: With 9 grams of protein and a complex array of unique ingredients, this smoothie is rich in vitamins C & A, calcium, fiber, potassium and iron. It is made with Pineapple Ginger Spa Water, a fresh Granny Smith apple, raw ginger, hand-picked fresh mint leaves, a squeeze of fresh lime, pineapple, banana, Greek yogurt and pineapple sherbet, and is topped with crunchy banana chips, shredded coconut, tender Granny Smith apple slices and tart dried cranberries.
The new menu items follow a longstanding tradition of innovation for Robeks, which helped popularize açaí, smoothie bowls, Greek yogurt smoothies, and more.
