  • Introducing: The Basil Bandwagon Smoothie!

    Introducing: The Basil Bandwagon Smoothie!

    This month, we’re celebrating 25 year in business! We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to name this month’s special smoothie after our own brand, Basil Bandwagon. We took it a step further and decided to incorporate basil as an ingredient because it’s just that delicious. This favorite herb of ours that inspired our store name is both versatile and refreshing. It can be incorporated into savory or sweet dishes and treats. In this case, we’ve partnered it with creamy almond milk, a dash of ceylon cinnamon, a small spoonful of Vermont maple syrup, creamy bananas, and sweet mango. The end result is a refreshing cup of celebratory Spring that your belly will simply love. Come and get one while they’re available this month and celebrate our 25th Anniversary with us!

  • the LUCKY SHAKE is BACK and still Better Than Ever

    the LUCKY SHAKE is BACK and still Better Than Ever

    You told us and we listened: our Lucky Shake was our most popular monthly special smoothie of 2017, and so we’re bring it back again for the month of March 2018.
    Last year, we caught on to the hype surrounding a popular fast food chain’s seasonal ‘milkshake’. Everyone was talking about this tasty beverage, so we wanted to see what it was all about. What we discovered was unsettling to say the least…
    With ingredients like “whipping propellant”, “sodium benzoate”, “yellow 5”, and “blue 1”, we wondered how this drink was able to be sold as actual “food”. In fact, other than milk, sugar, cream, and water, the laundry list of ingredients includes nothing recognizable as edible. Furthermore, a medium one of these shockingly electric green liquids in a cup would cost you half of your day’s healthy allowance of saturated fat, zero grams of fiber, and a whopping 84 grams of sugar – which is more than a healthy adult should consume in two days‘ time. If you don’t believe us, check out the stats on this below, which we’ve pulled directly from this fast food chain’s website:
    We’re all about celebration and treating yourself, but at Basil Bandwagon Natural Market, we believe this should involve doing so with kindness and nourishment to your body and mind. That’s why we created the Lucky Shake to give you this option. Our shake includes whole foods, fruits, vegetables, and plenty of fiber and protein. With ingredients like bananas, almond milk, cacao nibs, mint, plant-based protein powder, and spirulina (a nourishing seaweed extract), this is a treat you can enjoy comfortably while treating your body with care.
    Stop by and grab one today before March is over!
