Jamba Juice has made its way onto virtually every corner so that we can all feel the power of 100% fruit juice, but you may be feeling more than fruit juice here folks. These so called smoothies are heavily loaded with calories and sugar.

To see where your favorite Jamba concoction falls, read more

Flavor (Original) Calories Fat (g) Carbs (g) Sugar (g) Overall Best/Worst Choice
Peanut Butter Moo'd 840 21 139 122 WORST
Orange Dream Machine 521 2.5 106 100
Aloha Pineapple 500 1.5 117 110
Strawberries Wild 450 0.5 105 92
Razz'N Red Tea 320 0 74 60
Peach Perfection 320 0.5 78 62
Berry Fulfilling 260 1 57 40 BEST



Favorite not listed? Check out Jamba Juice online for the full menu with nutritional information.

Fit's Tip: Go for the smallest size to reduce calorie and sugar intake. Or go the step further and get an extra cup and split a small with a friend. Also, the light drinks are much lower in calories but they contain a whole lot of unnatural stuff I can not pronounce to make the Lower Calorie Dairy Base, so if you're looking for something natural, this would not be the way to go.

    I'm a sucker for Jamba Juice. May not be the BEST choice but it's a lot better than all those other snacks out there. I usually order from the Enlightened Smoothies (Strawberry Nirvana, Mango Mantra... MMMM...)and plus you can get the free boosts of fiber, protein, energy... and others.

    Better yet, just go to Smoothie King. More actual fruit in your smoothie, with no artificial "base," whatever that is. Taste better and lower in calories. Plus they have a "make it skinny" option that really lowers the calorie count and sugar. The people at Smoothie King know their stuff, too.

    Berry Fulfilling is my favorite flavor so I can feel good about that! I usually get a sixteen size drink so it's smaller but just as satisfying.

    But I have been tempted to try the Peanut Butter Moo'd but I guess it would destroy the point of drinking healthfully there.

    Wow. And I was hoping for Jamba Juice to come to Singapore or something, after hearing so much about it.

    I'll stick to good ol juice from the hawker centres, thanks. Cheap and pure (they just blend it for you on the spot - yummm).

    Sad Okay, I have been all wrong, I always go to Jamba after the Gym and get the Original size pinya kolada and substitute the Bananas for peaches, delicious! and of course that is dinner replacement drink. I guess I was just getting all those calories I had lost at the Gym???? Looks like I will be trying that Berry fulfilling in a 16oz of course! hahah

    I personally hate Jamba Juice.

    Tropical Smoothie Cafe has fresh fruit smoothies under 200 calories that are a million times better than Jamba Juice.

    They also can substitute any smoothie with Splenda to cut the calories almost in half. Their smoothies are an all fruit based smoothie with no fillers. (Some smoothie places use a yogurt filler to give thickness.)

    They also have great wraps and sandwiches made with Boar’s Head meat. YUM!

    citrus bliss. oh.my.god. amazing. it's not on the board anymore, but it's an all-fruit smoothie with orange juice, lemonade and bananas and strawberries...i think...it's too delicious. i had one yesterday. it always cheers me up. i used to get the strawberry nirvana and berry fulfilling. i even wrote a review on them for my high school newspaper and people kept coming up to me, telling me they took my advice and loved what they got. yay!! if you feel like splurging, try the "white gummy bear". it's on their secret menu, and most jamba juices know how to make it. it tastes EXACTLY like a gummy bear. however, it's all sherbets and some mangos, so there's not too much nutrition to it. nice for a sweet treat though!!

    This isn't 16, it's the regular. I'm always getting 16 oz. Peach Perfection is the best! Or Strawberry Whirl too is good. Wheat grass is only 10 calories per serving.
