JambaHawaii
Over the past weekend, there were a couple of food tasting adventures taking place in Hawaii.
One of them saw a group of us hit Ono's, Leonard's and Waiola Bakery/Shaved Ice all in one setting. That trip was affectionately called the Trifecta. I lobbied to make it a Grand Slam with a Jamba Juice stop, but most everyone was too full, and someone mentioned that Jamba Juice was not something uniquely Hawaiian and so wouldn't count.
However, on my last day in Honolulu, I stopped into a Jamba Juice and determined that this was not true. On the menu were flavors that I have not seen before. Guava based smoothies! I ordered Gotta Guava (a mix of Guava Juice, Pineapple Sherbert, Strawberries and Peaches) Boy was that good. As you drink it, you first taste the Guava Juice. Then the Pineapple kick hits you. And as the flavor leaves, peach settles over your taste buds. Strawberry is in there somewhere, but that's what I remember. Mmmm, Mmm, delicious. Now if only I can convince Jamba Juice (mainland) to import this delicious drink.

Shoulda told me about the guava (maybe you did I didn't pay attention). I would have gotten one :)
Alas, I didn't spot the guava until my last day. Otherwise, I might have been well-hydrated the whole trip.
