Fineman becomes the brand's "Tropic Time Concierge," transporting guests to everyday getaways in support of new Tropic Bowl menu rollout

ATLANTA, Jan. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Atlanta-based Tropical Smoothie Cafe today announced the nationwide rollout of a new flavor-packed line of Tropic Bowls and a refreshed breakfast menu as part of a national advertising campaign starring Saturday Night Live's Chloe Fineman. Fineman serves as the brand's "Tropic Time Concierge" – a spunky, sunny hotel concierge who helps guests treat themselves to everyday getaways in the form of better-for-you Tropic Bowls.

For years, Tropical Smoothie Cafe has aspired to provide an escape from everyday life with its tagline, You're on Tropic Time Now^®. With the "treat yourself" movement becoming a cultural phenomenon (#treatyourself has over 3.6 billion views on TikTok), Tropical Smoothie Cafe is debuting new menu items and reimagining its Tropic Time campaign as a whimsical beach resort with Fineman at the helm, ready to offer five-star luxury to guests. Her first recommendation as Concierge? The new Tropic Bowls.

• Acai Bowl: acai base, fresh strawberries, fresh blueberries, sliced banana, coconut, granola, chia seeds & honey
• Chia Oatmeal Pudding: a blend of chia seeds, red quinoa, coconut milk & steel cut oats topped with Chobani^® Greek Yogurt, fresh blueberries, sliced banana, granola, chia seeds & honey
