Dallas, Texas — Smoothie King is adding a limited-time smoothie and a new food item to its national menu as part of a Valentine’s Day collaboration with television personality and entrepreneur Tyler Cameron. The new items will launch February 10, 2026. The chain will offer the Berry Smooth Smoothie nationwide through its app and in stores. The launch also includes the debut of its Egg & Avocado Signature Toast as part of its Power Eats Menu expansion.
The Berry Smooth Smoothie is inspired by a chocolate-covered strawberry. It features a blend of strawberries, cocoa, and Smoothie King’s proprietary protein mix. The launch marks the brand’s latest celebrity partnership. It also reinforces the company’s push toward functional, wellness-positioned offerings. These releases arrive during a seasonal period typically associated with indulgence.
According to Smoothie King, the smoothie was developed to align with its nutritional framework. At the same time, it leans into Valentine’s Day flavor cues. Claudia Schaefer, chief marketing officer at Smoothie King, said the partnership reflects the brand’s effort to connect lifestyle branding with product development.
She added that the Valentine’s promotion reimagines a familiar seasonal treat in smoothie form. The goal is to remain consistent with the company’s health-forward positioning.
The menu update also includes the Egg & Avocado Signature Toast. The toast is built on eight-grain bread. It is topped with avocado, hard-boiled eggs, everything bagel seasoning, chili garlic oil, and chili flakes. The item is designed to pair with smoothies as a full meal option. It represents another step in Smoothie King’s expansion beyond beverages and into prepared foods.
Smoothie King launched its Power Eats Menu in 2025. The move was part of a broader strategy to diversify revenue streams. It also aimed to compete more directly with fast-casual breakfast and lunch concepts.
Industry context
Seasonal menu launches tied to holidays have become a consistent strategy across quick-service and fast-casual brands, especially when paired with influencer or celebrity partnerships. Valentine’s Day in particular has evolved into a testing ground for limited-time flavors that blend indulgence with wellness positioning.
Smoothie King’s approach mirrors a broader trend in which brands introduce short-run products to drive app usage, social engagement, and in-store traffic without committing to permanent menu additions. The addition of toast-based items also reflects growing competition in the functional breakfast and protein-forward snack space.
Why it matters
The Tyler Cameron collaboration highlights how food and beverage brands are using celebrity partnerships and seasonal storytelling to refresh their menus. These efforts help brands maintain their core values while introducing limited-time offerings.
By framing a traditionally indulgent Valentine’s Day flavor around protein and nutrition, Smoothie King connects multiple trends. The brand blends nostalgia with lifestyle branding. It also aligns with the growing focus on functional food.
The expansion of the Power Eats Menu signals a strategic shift. Smoothie King is moving toward becoming a broader meal destination. It is no longer positioning itself as only a beverage-focused concept.
This approach reflects wider industry efforts. Many brands are working to increase average ticket size. They are also aiming to capture more dayparts through hybrid food-and-drink offerings.
