Fast service with healthy options but I didn't realize how much ice was in the drinks. I think I took 5 sips and my protein coffee was gone. I feel like I didn't get the value for what I payed for. It would be nice if the drinks were made with less ice. read more

Blend - A ton of ice, this is after some of the ice melted. - Coffee & Tea Near Me

Everytime I stop in they are so friendly and welcoming. You can tell they have a lot of regulars, every time I stop by they're greeting people and I've heard on more than one occasion while I'm there, the owners, Chuck and Jenn, asking a customer if they want "their regular". I'm not a regular customer, but love to treat myself to their colorful and delicious drinks from time to time. I try to order something different every time I visit and have, on more than one occasion, asked for a surprise drink. They have some seating inside and there's plenty of parking, which makes it so easy to stop by and grab something quick to go. I also love their logo wall, it's almost impossible not to take a photo of the colorful drinks in front of it each time. They offer blended and iced drinks with different benefits. A lot of people will grab protein drinks as a meal substitute or post workout drink and I typically grab one of the fruity flavored drinks for an energy boost. read more

Blend has delicious drinks! I stopped in on a hot, oppressive, Sacramento afternoon. I left feeling cool and refreshed. I ordered a watermelon and cucumber tea which had a bright pink and yellow color. My first sip was bursting with cool refreshing flavor. It wasn't too sweet and was a great flavor combo. They didn't pack it full of ice, so I got plenty of hydrating fluids on my drive home The owners are super friendly and we chatted for few minutes while I waited. The shop is clean and modern inside and the service was quick. It was a fast refreshing stop on a hot day. read more

It wasn't what expected, but that was because I didn't do enough investigating before I came! It's not teas like green tea/boba and it's not fresh juices. It's mostly protein and (clean) energy drinks. They have a large selection of flavors, but I was limited because I wasn't expecting most of the options to be energy based. The inside is cute with a photo op backdrop, a long bench to sit at, a bar and some couches/chairs. The owners were kind and helped me find a drink option that wasn't energy based. I tried the Merry Berry iced beverage. It was tasty. But in my opinion it was just too strongly flavored for my liking. I think this place would be an awesome spot for people post or pre workout looking for a protein or energy drink. I'll have to come back when I'm looking for some caffeine! read more

I was on a date and we decided to go on a hunt for an afternoon drink refresher. With a quick Yelp search, we decided to check out Blend as it was close to where we were and the reviews were pretty cool. Once we walked through the doors, we were hit with such a high level of energy and enthusiasm. One of the co-owners walked us through the menu and assisted us with narrowing down the right drink of choice for our respective preferences. His wife (the other co-owner) eventually walked through and the four of us had a great time conversing about health, working out, vitamin intake, etc. Awesome people! I ended up choosing the Watermelon Cucumber energy drink and it was absolutely refreshing. There is B12 added so there isn't the standard crash after a pick-me-upper of an energy drink. I can't remember what my date ended up picking but he did share that his drink was also really good. We were both impressed with the options for drinks, the quality in service, and with the overall establishment for putting out healthier options into the neighborhood. First timers but definitely won't be our last. Support local small businesses y'all! read more

Healthy, fun and delicious drinks Seeing as I had enjoyed my complimentary drink from our Yelp event with Blend last month I have been craving that same drink ever since! It was impossible for me to return during the week because of my work schedule so weekends was my only option. Their location is not exactly a hop, skip and a jump away from Roseville which is 17-23 miles away depending on the route I take. This could take between 33-40 mins drive for me. I finally made it there today with an hour to spare and ordered my favorite drink as I love the tangy taste of Blow Pop. So delicious and refreshing with tastes of prickly pear, watermelon, green apple and peach! Perfect for another triple digit Sacramento weather. I also got drinks for my kids, a Cookies & Cream Shake and Just Peachy which they enjoyed. Husband and wife team, Chuck and Jenn Duffey, were both present with Chuck w/ 2nd child in tow in a baby carrier gear. So cute to see a tiny hand on his Dad's neck the whole time he's asleep. Aaahhh... great drink! Review #2670 read more

Looking for a drink that is fun AND delicious? You have to try "Blend"- a unique business located off Folsom Blvd. in East Sacramento. This family-owned and operated store offers a variety of cooling drinks, protein shakes and energizing teas. Each drink is hand crafted, and they are super kind and open to adjusting drinks to your dietary needs. I really wanted to try this business- because they offer guilt-free options and are made with natural ingredients. The energizing teas are infused with aloe (so good for you!) and natural green tea, AND are sweetened with stevia (sugar-free). They have so many flavors I normally cannot find, and additionally have that AWESOME crushed ice that everyone is always looking for! Blend also creates protein shakes that can be a meal replacement, or just for a tasty snack- they are lower in sugar but high in essential vitamins and minerals. For example, the "Cinnamon Toast Crunch" Protein Shake has all the sweetness and flavor of the cereal, but lower in carbs/sugars/calories. Triple threat! On this occasion, I tried the, "Blow Pop"- it was a 3 layer drink that was sweet and sour, tart and so AHMAZING. I also got the, "Peach-O", which had a protein base with mellow peach flavors- it actually tasted just like the peach ring candies! Using super fun flavors like, "cucumber watermelon", "java chip", "strawberry cheesecake" and tons more, the menu is extensive and there is a flavor for everyone. This is my new favorite place to stop by for a unique drink. read more

Over the weekend, my husband and I decided to stop in to purchase our daughter a drink to cool off in this summer heat. As soon as we entered we were greeted by the sweet and bubbly husband and wife team, Chuck and Jen! And met their adorable toddler! She ordered the Unicorn from their Kiddo's Menu. My daughter LOVES unicorns and brought her unicorn just for the occasion he he! She savored every sip of this kid-friendly cotton candy flavored drink! I would definitely recommend this small local business owned by a husband and wife team! They mentioned their drinks were created by their customers, so feel free to customize your drink to your liking! We will definitely be returning to explore more of their menu, especially their donuts and shakes, yum!! Follow them @blendsacramento on Instagram SYOY! read more

Wow, Blend is the perfect spot when you need a pick me up! Its located in the shopping center on Folsom Blvd by Raley's and the 99 cents store. Walking inside is very bright and welcoming! Good opportunities for cute pics as well. The owners are super friendly. You can tell by the way they treat all of their customers. I came here after work and tried their Sweet Tart energy tea. Just one sip and I was HIT with flavor and energy. Mind you it only has 1 gram of sugar! It doesn't taste like diet or anything. They also have really cool boosts like probiotics and collagen that can be added to any of their drinks! I'll have to come back to try their shakes. read more

We were greeted as soon as we walked in. The owners were very friendly. This place has a very warm feeling, like if your at someone home. We ordered the Sweet Tart, M&M Delight and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Let me tell you, I'm not a tea drinker and the Sweet Tart was so good. I personally couldn't tell it was tea and drank it all. My kids had the shakes. I tasted the M&M Delight and that one was really good, both of my kids loved their shakes. They are meal replacement shakes and they really fill you up. They upgrade your shakes from a small to large on Wednesdays. We will definitely come back. read more

Shake up the day with a positivi-tea! I love tea. I drink at least 2 cups of tea everyday. I came here after bootcamp class so I can use some energy to keep me active the rest of Saturday. I got a full schedule day ahead. I was given a warm welcome by the owners. It was obvious this is a family business the minute you walk me. Friendly and intimate vibe. I ordered the Watermelon Cucumber shake. Wow, it was so refreshing. Cool cucumber with a hint of watermelon. It wasn't too sweet and taste like jolly rancher! They also have shakes that are like meal replacement packed with B12, protein, boost of fiber, collagen, and etc. Lots of yummy choices. I'll come back to try one of the shakes next time. They also do pre-order bake goods with protein. I had the protein snickerdoodle and white chocolate cookies . It was moist and delicious. read more

The most beautiful couple owns this delightful healthy café. I had the pleasure of stopping in during an Elite yelp event and met their two littles as well. So many creative "blends "on the menu to choose from. I ended up ordering a Prickly Pear with watermelon, green apple, and peach. It was incredibly refreshing. I look forward to going back and trying several of the other blended drinks. If you're looking for a space that's family oriented, this is a great one. They even have a kids corner. read more

WHY I WENT HERE: - support a Black-Owned business (especially since it's Black History month) - was going to be in this part of town so stopped by here first THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located in the plaza off Folsom Blvd and Julliard Dr - located across the street from the Folsom Boulevard Flea Market - located in the same plaza as 99 Cents Only Store and Raley's (but closer to the Julliard Dr part of the plaza) THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - VERY cute and aesthetically pleasing (very much like a lot of new boba spots or mochi donut spots; a couple of places to take pics of your drink order against) - really liked how there's a board in the rear part of the establishment where people have their stats on their weight loss journey from being regular customers of the meal replacement shakes offered here THE MENU: - energy drinks - shakes - boosts - mega energy - boosted energy drinks - kiddos WHAT I ORDERED: - Tropical Bliss - Hello Sunshine THE TASTE: - first off, the gradient looks on the drinks are super cool - the taste was definitely sweeter than anticipated, but they were good CUSTOMER SERVICE: - first thing you see is that it's owned and operated by a family (mom/wife heading up the customer service, dad/husband carrying their baby in a front facing baby carrier while making the drinks and calling out customer orders) - very warm and enthusiastic - you get a punch card for your visits as well, which is nice read more

Blend - White Chocolate Snicker Ice Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me

I don't think I understood the concept of this place when we visited. I searched Yelp for a tea/smoothie place and Blend came up so we stopped by. We got two drinks - just peachy which had peach and mango and surf's up which had strawberry, lemonade, and blue razz. The drinks looked beautiful! But, with one sip it was clear that there was some artificial sweetener settling at the bottom of the cup and something carbonated. I took two sips and the rest was not drinkable for me. We probably should've asked more questions, specifically, what is in the drinks and the shakes and what does "energy" refer to. Although, I admit that I don't understand why a combo comes with tea and a shake. I would either want one or the other as I can't drink both at the same time. It seems like this place is popular so going here was just our mistake. read more

On a recent day off from work, I finally managed to get to try Blend. I have been trying to try this place for almost a year now but due to the pandemic and limited hours, I was never successful. But finally the day came! I stopped in on Monday and was promptly and pleasantly greeted by the owners, a husband and wife duo. They were so kind and engaging, explaining the menu and all of my options to me. I ended up ordering a combination which came with one tea and one shake. For my tea, I chose a pomegranate and cranberry combination. The tea was caffeinated and gave me the boost I needed to get through a busy day of cleaning and errands. For my shake, I chose the Java chip flavor with an added shot of mocha. Since it was a meal replacement shake, I felt full and satisfied after finishing. I am so thrilled to have a place like Blend so close to my house. It is nice to have healthy alternatives when you are on the go. read more

Customer service: 10 stars! Best service I've received in a long time. They're so personable, charismatic and helpful. They helped me pick a drink since it was my first time. Drink: I think I got the positivitea? Used to be called the Hakuna matata (description: taste the rainbow). I went for the cool colors. They described the taste as skittles, which I think is pretty accurate. It's a bit sweet for my liking, not sure if sweetness can be adjusted. I haven't finished the drink yet, so can't attest to whether or not it really helps give me a boost of energy or not. Therefore, I'm not sure it's worth $10ish, but it's definitely at least worth a try one time. Location: in the raleys shopping center off of Folsom blvd. Plenty of parking and pretty convenient. Ambiance/inside: plain and simple but very clean feeling, which is important during covid times. read more

Were only about a 4 min drive from here so I would Def come back whenever I feel like I need a little boost to my day :) read more

Looking for a healthier alternative to a milk shake or ice cream? Or looking for a delicious, protein filled meal replacement? This place has what you need! We tried the Cinnamon Roll Shake and Butterscotch Shake. Both were realllllly delicious. They were sweet and rich in flavor and would recommend both. The owners confirmed that both were gluten free. We got the large sides which were approximately 360 calories and 36 grams of protein for each. AMAZING. They also have a bunch of energy drink teas that look really good and we will be back to try them! The owners are also really friendly and were patient with all of our questions. Definitely stop by if you are craving something sweet, need an energy boost, or don't want toast for breakfast lol. read more

Great healthy beverage establishment. From blended teas, energy drinks, meal replacement shakes, this place has it all. Another plus for me it is a Black Owned Business! I was able to meet the owners, learn more about the business, their drink selection, and more about them personally. I ordered the banana cream shake, which is a powder & water based meal replacement drink. It was really filling and did taste just like a banana cream pie! The owner also made me a flavored mango energy water. Both of these drinks were made with a sugar replacement so I did experience some after taste. I am not sure if they make any traditional drink options with cane sugar or agave. However as I am trying to lose the quarantine 15 , it was great to have a healthy alternative! Pre Covid they were a cute hang out spot for students to study & socialize. Hopefully soon they will be able to go back to that model. Plenty of parking & easy to find right off of Folsom Blvd in the Raleys parking lot. read more

I got to check out Blend yesterday for Yelp Elite Week and it is smack dap in the middle of where I used to live when I was little so I was pretty familiar with the area when we arrived, but boy, has it changed! Blend has been around since February and thankfully they haven't had to shut down during the pandemic. They have been getting a lot of community support which is always great to hear! We were greeted by 3 smiling faces when we walked in and those smiles never left. Chuck explained to me how their drinks worked and what was in them. I asked which was the most popular before finally decided on Hakuna Matata. My husband went with Coco and I ordered Lightning McQueen for my daughter. We both loved our drinks and could feel the energy spurt when we got home! I even cleaned part of my garage! I loved that their drinks are natural with no added sugar and who can resist their picturesque colorful drinks! Blend is a great afternoon pick me up - I just wish they had one closer to my neighborhood! They even have daily specials - Thursdays are BOGO 50% off! Shout out to Blend, Chuck, his lovely wife and their staff - you guys were fantastic! I owe you a song next time I visit Chuck! I will definitely be checking them out again - how could I not come back and try those amazing looking shakes?! KEEP SUPPORTING BLACK OWNED BUSINESSES YA'LL! read more

I've heard of this business for a while and been meaning to check it out and I'm so happy i finally did! A family-owned business with an amazing product. I'm a fitness junkie and everything is low to zero sugar and low calorie! You wouldn't even guess because it tastes so yummy! They have tons of options. The place is clean and the product is tasty. I had the strawberry cheesecake and it was so yummy. What more could you ask? Well, if you're anything like me, good customer service will keep me returning but a kind heart will make me shout from rooftops. That's what I'm doing. These people were so kind and genuine it's been what i have been ranting and raving about for days to everyone I talk to. I got to talking with the owners as i waited for my drink and next thing i know, they offered to donate 50 of their one of a kind drinks to me and my coworkers (i work in healthcare during COVID-19). It's rare that you find a business with not only a one of a kind product, but a good heart as well. If you're thinking about trying this place, you won't regret it. I will be a customer forever that's for sure. Thank you guys again for such a tasty treat and being YOU read more

Great spot in South Sacramento/Arden area to get a healthy shake and or drink! My boys and I came out to Blend on the day of it's official grand opening to the public, and in support of our friends and Blend owners Chuck and Jenn....and the place was PACKED! Bustling full of family, friends, and locals from the neighborhood; it was an awesome site to see. On top of the delicious drinks the team at Blend provided, I loved the decor of this place. White theme with a nice pop of color with the faux ivy accent wall, provides for a nice photo backdrop for those visiting. And while there for the grand opening along with your amazing shakes and or teas, you could also pick up some Blend swag as their was a team setup in the back. Making Blend apparel right on the spot which was pretty cool. While here visiting my boys and I had the opportunity to try several of Blend's new specialty shakes and drinks. Between the three of us we tried the Mud Pie and Red Velvet specialty shakes, I got a Florida Sunset energizing tea, and my youngest got a kids drinks with the cool colors and flavors. But without the standard caffeine from the tea that comes in the regular drink version. All of the drinks were amazing, the Mud Pie shake reminded me of a Snickers bar as it's top with peanuts for a nice touch, and the Florida Sunset was so good too. OVERALL: Great vibe, great experience and awesome shakes and tea drinks. Definitely check this place out if you're ever in the area! read more

I was super bummed that we missed the Yelp Elite event here, so I am glad we were finally in the area and able to visit today! The location is a bit out there, but it's near Sac State. If this was around when I went to school there, I would've been here all the time! The decor is fun inside, and you gotta love a great photo wall! The menu has so many yummy drinks! It took me a while to decide and they were super patient with us! I ultimately decided on the Captain America mega tea, which is strawberry, watermelon and blue razz layered tea. My husband got the Black Panther, rest in paradise Chadwick Boseman! Both of our drinks were delicious! Mine was definitely a lot lighter, which I liked. The Black Panther one had more of a punch of flavor for sure. It was good but not sure I could drink a whole cup of that one! I can't wait to come back and try more of their flavors. We were able to speak to them for a bit and they do donut presales occasionally, so check out their Instagram! We weren't offered a cool pic on the photo wall but if you're lucky you'll get featured on their Instagram page! Great menu, tasty drinks, and friendly staff! 5 stars in my book. read more

The folks at Blend were so helpful and friendly. I stopped by as part of Elite Week and had such a hard time choosing a tea to try because so many of them sounded delicious. My daughter and I ended up trying the Georgia Peach (peach with a hint of mango) and the Green Hornet (green apple). Both were prepared quickly, ice filled to the brim and topped with refreshing tea. I didnt catch what sweetener was used or what if any "boosts" were included. But, the teas were a welcome change to my usual iced teas from Starbucks or boba shops. I can't wait to try their other tea blends on future visits. read more
