Tropical Smoothie Café in Las Vegas Offers New Breakfast Items Beginning Sept. 1

September is National Breakfast Month and all 20 Tropical Smoothie Cafés in the Las Vegas Valley are celebrating the occasion with the addition of three new ciabatta sandwiches and two flatbreads as well as a new Triple Berry Oat Smoothie to the breakfast menu.

With these new items, Tropical Smoothie Café will make available special offers exclusively to followers on their Facebook pages.

“Studies show that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and with our new menu we want our guests to know we’re eager to become part of their daily morning routine,” said Dina Mitchell Area Developer/Marketing Director for Tropical Smoothie Café. “We’re also making it incredibly easy by offering specials to our customers who are following us on Facebook. In addition to the national Tropical Smoothie Café fan page, we have launched pages for each of our 20 stores throughout the Valley and they will all be posting special offers to their followers.”

The new breakfast menu items launch September 1 and will be available through December 26, 2010. The first exclusive Facebook offer will be available September 1-8 – providing Facebook followers a 20 percent discount off any new breakfast item purchased before 10 a.m. Additional breakfast offers will be posted on the Facebook pages for fans to take advantage of throughout the month. Each Las Vegas store will also post promotions and specials on their individual Facebook fan pages.

• Kick Start – Made with egg, spicy ham, bacon and buffalo sauce.
• Reggae Riser – This tropical twist to breakfast includes egg, mozzarella, ham, pineapple and jerk sauce.
