Only time will tell if Heinz had their ducks in a row when they partnered with Smoothie King to make a ketchup smoothie. The new concoction will be available in 220 locations in Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Miami, and New York starting at around $5.70 with prices varying depending on location. It took 50 tries to get the right balance of flavors. The final recipe included acai sorbet, strawberry, raspberry, and an apple juice blend with the ratio of ketchup to fruit about 20 to 80. The Heinz smoothie is only available through August since that is the month that is considered tomato season. Since tomatoes are a fruit, it was only a matter of time before someone decided to use them as a fruit.
