Bee Berry Sting™ Bowl

$11.99 – 640 Cal

The Bee Berry Sting™ Bowl is part of the Smoothie Bowls category at Smoothie King. It is one of their options made with a pitaya (dragon fruit) base and focuses on tropical flavors. It starts with a blended pitaya base—a thick, frozen puree meant to be eaten with a spoon. It is topped with Purely Elizabeth® Ancient Grain Granola, fresh diced strawberries, whole blueberries, fresh mango chunks, and a drizzle of honey. This bowl is different from other pitaya bowls because it includes mango, which adds a tropical sweetness and a soft texture that matches well with the firm berries and crunchy granola.

Pitaya is a base ingredient that offers more than just a bright color. It is a fruit from Central and South America that is naturally low in calories but high in fiber and antioxidants. It is especially high in betalains, which are the natural parts that give it its bright pink color. When blended frozen, pitaya becomes thick and creamy, like soft-serve sorbet. This helps it hold all the toppings in place without needing extra chemicals to keep it thick. The mango adds natural sweetness and beta-carotene, while the strawberries and blueberries add a tangy taste and more antioxidants to balance the sweet honey.

This bowl is gluten-free and has no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, following Smoothie King’s “Clean Blends” rule. Because it contains honey, it is not vegan. At a price of $11.99 and with 640 calories, it works as a full meal rather than just a snack. People often eat it for breakfast or as a way to refuel after a workout.

Benefits of the Bee Berry Sting™ Bowl

High Antioxidant Density from Multiple Sources

Pitaya contains betalains, which are natural parts that help fight swelling and cell damage. Blueberries add anthocyanins, strawberries provide vitamin C, and mango adds beta-carotene. Together, these ingredients create a strong team of antioxidants that protect your cells in many different ways.

Meaningful Fiber Contribution

With 11 grams of fiber in one serving, this bowl gives an adult about 29–44% of the fiber they need for the day. This fiber comes from many things: pitaya, granola, strawberries, blueberries, and mango. It includes two types of fiber—one that keeps your blood sugar steady and another that helps your digestion stay regular.

High Energy for the Long Run

With 124 grams of total carbohydrates, the Bee Berry Sting™ Bowl has the most energy out of all the bowls at Smoothie King. Most of these carbs come from real foods like fruit, honey, and granola. This makes it a great choice for long-lasting energy if you are doing a long workout or if your body needs a lot of calories.

Beta-Carotene from Mango

Mango is a great source of beta-carotene, which your body turns into vitamin A. This vitamin is very important for your eyesight, your immune system, and healthy skin. Since beta-carotene needs a little fat to work best, the healthy fats in the granola help your body absorb it better.

Vitamin C for Immune and Skin Support

The mix of pitaya, strawberries, and mango gives you a large amount of vitamin C. This vitamin helps your immune system stay strong, helps your skin stay healthy, and helps your body take in iron. Getting vitamin C from real food is better than a pill because it comes with other natural nutrients.

Natural Honey for Quick Energy

Honey is made of simple sugars that your body can use for energy very quickly. Unlike regular white sugar, honey also has small amounts of healthy enzymes and antioxidants. For athletes who need to get their energy back fast after a workout, honey is a great natural choice.+1

Blueberries and Brain Health

The natural colors in blueberries (anthocyanins) have been studied for helping the brain and memory. Research shows that eating these types of berries regularly is linked to better brain health, especially as people get older.

Gluten-Free and Clean Ingredients

This bowl is certified gluten-free and has no fake colors, flavors, or preservatives. For people who cannot eat gluten or choose to avoid it, this is a safe and healthy meal that does not need any special changes.

High Sugar Content — A Consideration

It is important to know that this bowl has 86 grams of total sugar. This comes from the natural sugar in the fruit and the added sugar in the honey and granola. For people watching their sugar, like those with diabetes, this bowl is very high. You can make it much healthier by asking for no honey and less granola.

Recipe — Make It At Home

Ingredients (1 serving)

Base:

  • 1 packet (100g) frozen pitaya puree
  • ¼ cup papaya juice or tropical juice blend
  • ½ cup frozen strawberries
  • ½ cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 teaspoon turbinado or raw cane sugar (optional)

Toppings:

  • ¼ cup Purely Elizabeth® Ancient Grain Granola
  • ½ cup fresh strawberries, diced
  • ½ cup whole fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup fresh mango, diced
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Run the frozen pitaya packet under warm water for 10–15 seconds to slightly soften it, then break it into chunks.
  2. Add pitaya, papaya juice, frozen strawberries, frozen mango, and turbinado (if using) to a high-powered blender. Blend on high until completely smooth and thick — the consistency should be similar to soft-serve ice cream. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides several times. Add liquid sparingly to maintain thickness.
  3. Scoop the blended pitaya base into a wide bowl.
  4. Arrange the granola, strawberries, blueberries, and mango chunks across the top in separate sections or rows.
  5. Drizzle honey generously over the entire bowl.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes:

  • Frozen pitaya packets are widely available at Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and most major grocery stores. Look for unsweetened varieties to control sugar content.
  • If the base is too thin, add more frozen pitaya or frozen fruit rather than reducing liquid, to preserve the flavor balance.
  • For a vegan version, replace the honey with agave syrup or maple syrup.
  • For a protein boost, blend in a scoop of vanilla plant-based protein powder or top the bowl with a tablespoon of almond butter.
