Daily Harvest
Who’s up for a healthy protein shake that’s fairly easy to make? 🙋♀️ We’re sure that your New Year’s resolution contains being kind to your body by living a healthier lifestyle this 2025. Your wish is Daily Harvest’s command with their new Protein Smoothies.
Daily Harvest’s mission is to make sustainably grown fruits and vegetables easy to eat, which is why they announced their line of craveable high-protein smoothies that are packed with USDA-certified organic ingredients. They’re available in universally loved flavors of Dark Chocolate, Vanilla Bean, and Mixed Berry. They’re available to get at DailyHarvest.com and will be available later this month at select Kroger and associated grocery stores, which includes Fry’s Fred Meyer, Dillion’s, King Soopers, QFC, and Ralphs and Smith’s.
Now, what makes these Protein Smoothies worth it? Well, each pack contains 20 grams of plant protein. This new addition boasts real fruit and vegetable ingredients that customers know, plus they also get 100% organic pea protein. This means that Daily Harvest’s Protein Smoothies contain no whey or nuts, unlike other protein smoothies sold on the market.
Here’s what you can expect from each flavor:
- Dark Chocolate – Rich brownie batter with cacao, dates, pumpkin seeds, and zucchini.
- Vanilla Bean – Notes of a “nostalgic taste,” according to the brand, thanks to the ingredients, which are organic dates, bananas, pure vanilla bean, chickpeas, and parsnips.
- Mixed Berry – Notes of a “refreshing fro-yo” taste but made dairy-free. The smoothie flavor is made out of strawberries, bananas, blueberries, flax seeds, and kale.
The best thing is that no unrecognizable ingredients are added, such as oils, artificial sweeteners, major allergens, or protein powders that may possibly cause digestive issues. It retails for $8.99 per cup.
To celebrate its launch, Daily Harvest is partnering up with tennis champion and entrepreneur Sloane Stephens, who will be sharing her experience with incorporating the company’s meals and snacks into her daily regimen and routine. The brand is also collaborating with Doc & Glo, which is Stephens’ body care company, to highlight their commitment to supporting active lifestyles and your overall well-being.

International Delight
You’re surely getting the “Love is Blind” fever now that you’ve been watching the past seasons while waiting for the season 8 premiere. You don’t have to worry; you can soon binge-watch the show on Netflix on February 14, 2025. But now, you might want to sit back and relax while watching the past seasons with a cup of flavored coffee.
Yup, you’re thinking what we have in mind! It wasn’t too long before Coffee Mate released their new creamer collection in collaboration with HBO Max’s “The White Lotus,” but it looks like International Delight is rivaling by collaborating with a Netflix reality show and releasing quite some unique flavors that you won’t imagine in your coffee.
International Delight is introducing the new Chocolate Covered Strawberry Creamer and Wedding Cake Creamer, which gives off the vibes of the dating show. The Chocolate Covered Strawberry flavor will probably remind you of the trending strawberry dipped in chocolate, while the Wedding Cake Creamer is said to note a vanilla-like flavor with hints of buttery and creamy frosting.
According to food blogger @Snack Betch, the creamers have been spotted at select Weis Markets and on the Walmart website.

From The Club
I guess this snack news is targeted at me, as I mentioned that I got into coffee in 2024. And guess what? I’ve also been into fruit smoothies lately since my mom got us a smoothie maker! As I’ll be starting to hit the gym this January, Daily Harvest’s Protein Smoothies is the best post-workout recovery drink for me. As for International Delight’s new creamers, I’m excited to get the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Creamer as someone who loves strawberries!
