A father-son team in Arizona spent 14 years perfecting a protein smoothie that's 250 calories, 35 grams of protein, sugar-free, gluten-free — blended with just water and ice. And customers say it tastes like ice cream.
In this episode, Daniel and Ethan Boone sit down with our full team of franchise owner consultants to break down everything about HB Protein Smoothies — from the proprietary formula to why their customers come back 4-5 days a week.
We cover the menu: 20+ flavors like salted caramel, banana cream pie, coffee ice cream, and chocolate peanut butter banana. A plant-based organic line for vegan and dairy-free customers. Clean energy drinks with 75mg caffeine and electrolytes. Vegan, gluten-free protein balls for grab-and-go. And healthy add-ons like creatine, PB2, chia seed, hemp seed, and vitamin C — so every shake can be tailored to weight loss, maintenance, or muscle building without blowing the macros.
Daniel breaks down why protein is the single most important macronutrient most people aren't getting enough of — and why creatine isn't just for gym rats. It feeds the mitochondria, boosts ATP production, supports brain function, and is the most studied supplement on the planet. If you had a bad night's sleep, five grams of creatine first thing in the morning resets the body faster than coffee.
On the business side, this is one of the most streamlined franchise models we've seen. No grease traps. No ventilation hoods. No kitchen nightmares. Just blenders, an ice machine, and a small team. The vibe inside is built for community — games, wifi, couches, and a culture where regulars are known by name. One organic TikTok about banana cream pie drove new customers for months. That's the kind of brand loyalty you can't manufacture.
Dan Rowe — the same franchise operator who built Pay More into a sold-out system — sees HB as a thousand-store brand. Meanwhile, Noodles & Company just closed 36 locations and Starbucks is selling "protein drinks" packed with sugar. The market is telling you where it's going.
If you're exploring wellness franchise opportunities, smoothie franchise investments, or you've been waiting for a concept that actually fits the way consumers are eating now — this is the episode.
