We’re almost halfway through October and that means pumpkin season is at its height. Coffee shops, bakeries, grocery aisles, and fast-food menus are all getting their share of the autumn flavor, and Jamba is ready to join the pumpkin party. The smoothie chain has a little something planned for fans who start craving those cozy fall flavors as soon as the calendar flips to October.

Jamba is getting in on the fun with the return of one of its fall favorites, plus a brand-new pumpkin smoothie for anyone who likes a little chocolate with their autumn flavors.
Pumpkin Smash Is Back
Starting October 1st, participating Jamba locations nationwide are bringing back the Pumpkin Smash smoothie. Joining it for the first time is Pumpkin Moo’d, a new take that mixes pumpkin with Jamba’s signature Moo’d Powder for a chocolate-and-pumpkin combo.
Both drinks are sticking around throughout October, while supplies last.
Pumpkin Smash is the pick for anyone who wants that classic pumpkin taste without too much fuss. And honestly, there are already enough pumpkin products competing for attention in October. A pumpkin smoothie was bound to join the party.
Pumpkin Moo’d Has A Chocolatey Twist
The new item on Jamba’s fall menu is Pumpkin Moo’d, and it has a slightly more dessert-like idea in mind. Jamba is taking its Moo’d Powder and pairing it with its seasonal pumpkin flavor. This is supposed to give you a chocolate-pumpkin smoothie that tastes like the usual fall flavor a sweeter, richer spin.
Moo’d has already appeared in some of Jamba’s more indulgent smoothies, including the popular Peanut Butter Moo’d. The ingredient brings a chocolatey flavor to the mix, so adding it to pumpkin gives the new drink a very different personality from Pumpkin Smash.
Pumpkin Needs A Sidekick
A smoothie can make a perfectly good snack, but Jamba has another idea for anyone who wants something more filling.
The chain suggests pairing its seasonal smoothies with warm food, including a Belgian Waffle or Mozz Bites. That gives the cold, creamy drinks a warm sidekick and turns them into more of a meal.
The Belgian Waffle brings a sweet option to the table, while Mozz Bites offer something cheesy and savory. So there is room for either kind of pumpkin-season mood.
Both Drinks Are For A Limited-Time
Pumpkin Smash and Pumpkin Moo’d arrived at participating Jamba locations on October 1st and are available throughout October while supplies last. So, there’s no need to wait until Halloween to try them.
For pumpkin purists, there is Pumpkin Smash. For anyone who thinks chocolate makes almost everything better, there is Pumpkin Moo’d.
