Red Mango Wayne Grand Opening this Weekend: Frozen Yogurt at its Best!

Though it has just begun, summer is here in full swing.  When I think of summer, I think of lazy days at the pool, vacations at the shore and cold, frozen beverages and treats. Water Ice, Ice Cream – Oh My!  Problem is – too much of a good thing is not so good on the waistline.  That’s why when you come across a healthy alternative that is actually good for you and tastes delicious, well – that’s when you cannot help but tell everyone you know about your new find.  And that is exactly what I am about to do.

Last week, my children and I were invited along with other Philly Social Media Moms to a gathering at Red Mango in Wayne.  Red Mango Wayne, which specializes in frozen yogurt and smoothies, is one of over 170 locations in the country and the first in our area.  What makes Red Mango so special is that all of their frozen yogurt is all natural, gluten free with no artificial flavors and contains healthy probiotics (you know – those things that are super helpful with digestion and immunity?)  With a rotating selection of over 40 flavors, there is sure to be something on the menu to satisfy everyone’s tastes. From traditional flavors such as original and chocolate to specialties like White Peach, Caribbean Coconut and Pomegranate, I personally had a hard time choosing one or two to fill my bowl.  Weighing in at around 100 calories per small serving (with most being fat free as well), they may taste sinfully delicious but without all of the “sin”.  Customers can serve their own serving into small or large cups, ensuring that you get the perfect portion for you every time.  Kids love this part (at least my kids did anyway) – there is something fun about the “do it yourself ” aspect.  Once you serve your treat, you will then be greeted by an amazing toppings bar filled with healthy natural toppings like fresh fruit, organic granola and such as well as customary favorites like jimmies, gummy bears, brownie bites and other fun treats.  Can you guess what my kids piled onto theirs?

Unlike my kids, I decided to go with the Honey Badger Vanilla with fresh fruit and granola.  Wanna see how delicious that looked?

If you think it looked absolutely scrumptious, well it tasted even more divine!  It was the perfect mix of creamy deliciousness and I loved that I did not feel one bit guilty after eating it!

Although I did not sample them, the establishment also offers fresh fruit smoothies, probiotic lemonades and iced teas – all wonderful refreshments any time of day.

This Saturday, June 23rd from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, Red Mango, 150 East Lancaster Ave, Wayne, will be celebrating its Grand Opening with free frozen yogurt with toppings for everyone.  The first 100 people that come in get tee shirts! The event includes FREE yogurt, prizes, a magician/balloon maker, and an opportunity to donate to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! Sounds like a great day out with the family.  And what a wonderful opportunity to come out and give these delicious frozen treats a try for yourself.

Be sure to stop by and check them out and say hi on Facebook and Twitter

My kids are already asking when we can visit again.  Something healthy and delicious that they both enjoy? I have a feeling we will be paying regular visits to Red Mango this summer.  Many thanks to owner Jamie and her delightful staff for welcoming us in and introducing us to this amazing treat!  You can be assured – without a doubt – we will be back!!

Disclosure: My kids and I were spoiled with a delicious pizza lunch and complimentary yogurt and toppings from Red Mango.  I was also given a generous swag bag with goodies as well.  All opinions are my own – and my kids agree – Red Mango really does Rock!
