The new Vivanno flavors are Banana Chocolate and Orange Mango Banana. Each is made with real fruit, 2% milk and ice with juice or chocolate flavor mixed in. A protein and fiber powder is added to give you additional nutrients, too.
I tried the Banana Chocolate at BlogHer, and it was delicious. I didn't want to miss out on trying the other flavor, though, so I stopped by Starbucks yesterday and gave the Orange Mango Banana a go. I loved that one even more. (As did Mira, who whined until I let her slurp up the last fifth of the cup.) I don't know the full nutritional data, but I will say I felt full after drinking the smoothie and it kept me going until dinner.
Neither has an caffeine (well, the chocolate one does, but it's a very small amount), so these aren't for caffeine addicts. But either of these could be great for an on-the-go snack with some nutritional benefit.
I'm giving away two coupons to try out the Vivanno drinks as part of the Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. To enter, just leave a comment on this post. I will allow entrants until Sunday, August 3, 2008 at 11:59pm eastern time. When you leave a comment, please make sure I have some way to contact you if you win.
One winner (so you can try out both drinks!) will be chosen at random and contacted next week. Contest is open only to US and Canadian residents. One entry per person, please. And good luck!
Be sure to check my personal blog for additional contests this week, too!

The chocolate banana one is sooo yummy, I tried one while on vacation. You *can* add a shot of espresso to either one so for those of us who like our caffeine, we can be happy too!
Thanks for the giveaway
caffeine is a good friend of mine, wouldn't mind another chance to get friendly
These sound really good! :D
Thanks for the chance! :)

Not entering, just saying that the banana chocolate one, with a couple shots of espresso, is so tastey. And you get your caffine too!
If I tried these and liked them, I would have a hard time using any Starbucks gift cards I win to bribe my dd into doing chores I don't want to do! I'd have to keep them myself to feed my new craving!
I have been DYING to try these! ppreacherswife at gmail dot com
Would love to try these new drinks!
Did someone say Starbucks? If it's Starbucks, it's gotta be good. I can't wait to try these!
Hm. I've never even heard of these yet but they sound super-tasty.
Thanks for the giveaway!
The banana chocolate one comes a close second to my all-time Starbucks fav, the Caramel Macchiato.

They sound yummmmy. I've never tried them before.
That mango one sounds so good. I'm not a coffee drinker, even though I do like ice coffee from there. I think I'd love the smoothie though, but that might be a bad things because I save a lot of money by not being a Starbucks junkie, lol\
WE have a new Starbucks only five minutes away from our home. Please enter me in your delightful drawing. Many thanks, Cindi

I would love to try these. They sound very tasty. Starbucks is always great. Thank you so much!
It would be hard to walk into a Starbuck's and *not* order a latte... but I'm willing to give it a try! ;)
I would love to win some free starbucks! We are moving cross country in 4 weeks, actually we are driving ourselves and our many pets 1500 miles while the movers handle our things.
We plan to stop at starbucks along the way and having a gift card would sure help out in paying for some liquid crack (aka starbucks)! We can't live without our coffee!

I love smoothies! When I was working in Denver and living in Ohio (Dayton) in the late 90s, I got hooked on them for a breakfast treat once a week. It was tough going back home and not being able to find a smoothie or a Starbucks. Thanks for the contest!
I havent been able to try the new drink and I would love to try it for free :-)
Thanks for this opportunity,
