Summer and smoothies go hand in hand. Whether enjoyed in the morning, as pre- or post-workout fuel, a convenient pick-me-up on hectic days, or a refreshing beach companion when it’s hot outside, there’s never a bad time to enjoy this frosty, customizable treat.
But for those busy days when you’re short on time and can’t make a smoothie before heading out the door, store-bought options often come in handy. Not every pre-made smoothie is worth spending your money on, but fortunately for anyone who appreciates fresh, fruity flavors, one of the most beloved grocery stores has announced a new partnership with a popular beverage brand known for its cold-pressed juices, flavorful smoothies, and high-quality ingredients.
As announced in a press release, California-based brand Pressed Juicery will exclusively launch its Functional Wellness Smoothie Multipack at over 550 Costco locations nationwide — starting this July.
Pressed Juicery is currently available in over 5,000 retail locations, but, as a brand representative confirms to Food & Wine, “The rollout to 550+ new Costco locations is [Pressed Juicery’s] largest club store launch yet.”
What really makes this partnership stand out is its affordability. The bundle of eight 10-ounce smoothies, featuring four different flavors, will be available exclusively at Costco for $16.89. That breaks down to about $2.11 per smoothie. For comparison, a single 15.2-ounce Açaí Berry Smoothie costs $6.95 on the Pressed website. Even though it’s a larger size, the Costco deal offers a significant discount on a per-ounce basis.
According to the release, “The launch also marks a major milestone in Pressed’s fast-growing wholesale strategy. As one of the most asked-for and sought-after wellness brands in the refrigerated set, Pressed is solidifying its position as a category leader with this national expansion at Costco.”
Which Pressed Juicery flavors are available at Costco?
This Costco-exclusive Pressed Juicery pack features the brand’s four best-selling smoothies: the Açaí Berry Smoothie (açaí, apple, blueberry, strawberry, and raspberry), Strawberry Orange Mango Smoothie (apple, orange, strawberry, and mango), Tropical Wellness Smoothie (pineapple, apple, mango, and banana), and Avocado Greens Smoothie (spinach, kale, spirulina, avocado, banana, and matcha). The multipack includes two of each flavor.
In addition to real fruit, the brand’s smoothies are prepared with its signature cold-pressed juice, as detailed on the packaging. The smoothies also contain no added sugar or juice concentrates.
“This Costco-exclusive pack was designed for today’s wellness-driven consumer,” Pressed Juicery’s chief executive officer, Justin Nedelman, says. “Costco is the perfect partner to bring this offering to life, as we share a commitment to providing accessible, high-quality wellness products to health-minded shoppers nationwide.”
Whether you’re looking for more ways to add fruit to your diet, want something refreshing on a hot summer day, or just need a convenient grab-and-go breakfast, this is the latest Costco find that should be on your radar.
