This summer, Smoothie King is bringing back its X-Treme Watermelon smoothie and introducing an all-new X-Treme Watermelon Lemonade smoothie, and to mark the occasion, the world's largest smoothie chain co-authored a steamy summer book with ChatGPT. A Summer Fling to the X-Treme is described as "this summer's thirstiest novel" and it tells the tale of Millie, Samson and a handsome stranger called Walter Melone.
Smoothie King is publishing a limited run of 300 paperback copies of A Summer Fling to the X-Treme, and this playful campaign matches the fun energy of the brand's newest limited-time smoothies.
And inside the copies of the book, there's a hidden code that can be cracked so that the first 300 readers can treat themselves to a free smoothie offer in the Smoothie King app.
