Orange Julius® Light Smoothie Launch Party
Posted by The Web Master under Eats & Treats on
As I walked into the Dairy Queen® corporate headquarters this morning, I got a warm welcome from our Orange Julius® team (by the way, did you know Dairy Queen owns Orange Julius?) handing out samples of the new Orange Julius Light Smoothies, which contain 1/3 less calories than regular smoothies and come in three flavors–Strawberry Delight™, Berry-Pom Twilight™, and Tropical Sunlight™. Only 250 calories in a 20 oz. size!
The lobby of our corporate headquarters had been transformed… there were decorations, music playing, and free samples of course! I also scored an orange hula hoop, so now I can take on the world to practice my hula hoop skills before summer is here. The goal of the event was to raise awareness about our new Orange Julius Light Smoothies, and that doing the little things can be good for your health – including drinking a Light Smoothie
So as I was in the elevator, I thought to myself, I must share this with our readers on the Dairy Queen blog, Facebook and Twitter! I just included a new link to Orange Julius.com (under DQ® links), where you can sign up for the OJ Quench Club®, check out what’s going on at Orange Julius locations, and find a store near you. After enjoying my free smoothie, I launched the new Orange Julius site, where they have a $1 off coupon for the new Light Smoothies.
After that, I went back down to the lobby for seconds on the free smoothie and took a few pics:

Ya, We All Like D-Q. Mom
I would like to know the total carbohydrates in a 20 oz Light Smoothie.
Does anyone know?
I am diabetic and I need to know so I can watch my carb intake. Thanks
Let us look into this for you!
