If you\u2019ve felt like smoothies have gotten suspiciously expensive, you\u2019re not wrong. We now live in a world where $17 blends with spirulina and collagen are a bit too normal<\/em>\u2014especially if you\u2019re shopping somewhere like Erewhon<\/a>. These LA luxury grocery stores aren\u2019t just health havens; they\u2019ve become known for their celebrity-backed smoothies, like Hailey Bieber\u2019s now-famous Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie<\/a> loaded with sea moss, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. I\u2019ve even heard of hotels licensing the rights to serve these viral drinks in their lounges. This is not your average fruit smoothie.<\/p>\n While I don\u2019t splurge often, I\u2019ve definitely noticed the growing hype. Back in college, there was always a long line at the a\u00e7ai bowl truck that parked near the far quad (sometimes rivaling the line when Raising Cane\u2019s opened). I never totally got the appeal or the price, but it was clearly a thing<\/em>. And this wasn\u2019t even in LA or New York\u2014it was in east central Illinois, where smoothie prices still capped around $12 back then.<\/p>\n Now that I live in New York, I\u2019ve become even more curious about these bright, pastel-toned blends full of natural ingredients and vitamins. So when I heard about a new limited-edition smoothie collab between SunLife Organics<\/a> and jewelry designer Kendra Scott, I jumped at the chance to try it.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t recognize her name immediately, you\u2019ve definitely seen her necklaces. Kendra Scott<\/a> is the name behind the billion-dollar lifestyle brand<\/a>, with multiple generations of women wearing her designs. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about her summer smoothie and whether it\u2019s worth $20.<\/p>\n
