Crisp organic product smoothies were a for all intents and purposes obscure item in 1983, when Jeff and Jill Summerhays started offering them low maintenance at occasions. Maui Wowi Hawaiian was worked to give their 'ohana (family) a solid other option to the sugar and fat loaded sustenances that appeared to be all over the place! Similarly as energetic, the Summerhayses needed to make a plan of action that was fun, adaptable, and portable so they could offer their everything characteristic, crisp organic product smoothies anyplace they had a craving for voyaging.
Australia's Gold Coast appeared like the ideal place to hang and put their idea under a magnifying glass so they stuffed it up, and made a beeline for the Land Down Under. It was not much sooner than the Aussies figured out how to hunger for these ono'licious mixes.
