If there’s a Jamba Juice near me, I’m going.  And when I do, I’m ordering the Caribbean Passion Smoothie.

Or I should say… When I used to go to Jamba Juice… because now that I know the secret to my all-time favorite menu item, I don’t really need to go there anymore.

Passion fruit is the secret to this delightfully tropical blend of frozen fruit and sherbet. So if you’re passionate about passionfruit, then this recipe is right up your alley.

At a Glance: Here is a quick snapshot of what ingredients are in this recipe.

Ingredient notes

  • Mango passion fruit juice: Look for a juice blend that contains both Mango and Passion Fruit if possible. It’s okay if it also contains orange juice or something else tropical. You can find blends at most major stores including Walmart, Aldi, and Amazon. Straight-up passion fruit juice also tastes great in this smoothie.

Recipe tips and variations

  • Yield: This recipe makes about 4 cups of smoothie, enough for 2 servings, 2 cups (16 ounces) each.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Some separation and melting will occur.
  • Thicker smoothies: Make sure the fruit is frozen solid if you like your smoothies on the thicker side. If you prefer a juicer smoothie, blend fresh fruit.
  • Good blenders make good smoothies: Especially with frozen fruit and ice. If you have a weaker blender, start by adding the fruit and ice or let the fruit thaw before blending.
  • Get creative: The great thing about smoothies is that you can switch up the ingredients to suit your taste. If raspberries are in season but the strawberries don’t look as good, feel free to use raspberries instead. Or use a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt and a splash of orange juice in place of sherbet.
  • Carrot Smoothie: You’ll love the flavors of mango, bananas, and orange juice in this colorful, vibrant smoothie starring a secret ingredient: frozen carrots.
  • Mango Smoothie: This simple smoothie is flavored with mangoes and bananas with Greek yogurt for protein and milk for creaminess. 
  • Peach Smoothie: Packed with protein and vitamins, this Peach Smoothie is a nourishing breakfast or snack idea anytime.
  • Spinach Smoothie: Fresh spinach, banana, pineapple, and yogurt make for a super simple, totally delicious way to eat more greens.
  • Strawberry Citrus Ginger Smoothie: Quench your thirst with this refreshing and fruity treat perfect for crushing your sweet cravings.

  1. This is perfect! I’m pregnant and crazing smoothies daily so this is a huge time and money saver. I used Jumex mango nectar and passion fruit cocktail and it’s spot on!5 stars

  2. Have you found a good substitute for the Welch’s Chillers Mango Passion Fruit Juice Drink? I can’t seem to find it anywhere and the Welch’s website doesn’t show it anymore.

    1. Hi David, I had no idea that product was gone. Thank you for letting me know! I’ll take a look at a few stores and see what I can find and update the recipe accordingly. I appreciate the info.

  3. I love jamba juice make their Caribbean passion all the time in the summer I add a little twist coconut rum delious5 stars

  4. I love that you have a smoothie without yogurt as the main ingredient – I like the sherbet twist. My body doesn’t love the yogurt smoothies but I still love the ease and deliciousness of a smoothie. Thanks for sharing!5 stars

  5. Nice recipe could not find the Welch’s juice but found one at Sprouts, probably not as sweet though and I think the smoothie reflected that. Still delicious though thank you. Now if I could just find Inta Juice’s recipe for their Caribbean Cooler!5 stars

  6. How many servings/ounces does this yield? Son asked for fruit smoothies instead of cake for his birthday, so need to make for 10 people.5 stars

    1. That’s awesome that he requested that! One batch makes 2 smoothies, so you’ll need to make 5 batches. What a good kid. 🙂

  7. I’m in Australia, and orange sherbert isn’t something I see around. Is there something that would be a decent replacement?

    1. Hi Melissa! Do you have orange sorbet around? They are basically the same thing except Sherbet has dairy in it (milk fat). But the orange flavor would really close. That would be my best suggestion. I looked at some recipes for making homemade orange sherbet but I think that would defeat the purpose of making this simple smoothie. I hope this helps! Good luck! If you end up trying it, I’d love to hear what you think. Thanks again.

    2. Lo champ,
      I actually work at Jamba, and the usual subsution for when we dont have orange hardback is adding 2-4 oz of Orange Juice. And adding 4 ounces more of strawberries and 2 ounces nore of peaches.
      Toodles 🙂

  8. I do live in the Caribbean on a tiny island, so I am going to try to make this with as much fresh fruit as I can find here now. I’m going to leave out the ice cream only because I need to loose weight now, but will do that later. I just made the citrus flax green smoothy with what I had on hand and it was tasty.

    1. Ah Liz, you live on a boat so you’re halfway there anyway! 🙂 Thank you for stopping by!
