Jamba Juice is a restaurant that caters to your average smoothie enthusiast. Jamba Juice was actually once called Juice Club and originated in San Luis Obispo, California back in 1990 when it was developed by Kirk Perron. Five years later the name changed to Jamba Juice and smoothies have never been the same since. As of today, Jamba Juice is located in twenty-two states and boasts to having at least 9,000 employees.

So what is Jamba Juice all about? They say they are dedicated to supplying their customers with using only the best of ingredients excluding any flavors, colors or fake preservatives for those who are seeking it. Jamba Juice believes what your body takes in will help to nourish your spirit.

Any customer that comes into Jamba Juice has a wide selection to choose from such as All Fruit, Jamba Light, Functional Flavors, Totally Tea Smoothies, Good Moo'ds, Jamba Classics and what they call, Old Favorites. Let's run down the list.
