Smoothies, not to be confused with the silky surface of babies, are known to repay raspberry kisses with tasty fruits of their own. Apply loving lips to a loyal straw with today's Groupon: for $2, you get one 24-ounce fresh-fruit smoothie (a $4.50 value) at Juice Stop. This Groupon is good at any of Juice Stop's five locations (listed on the right).

Juice Stop uses fresh, nutritious ingredients to whip up their low-temperature, high-energy smoothies and protein shakes. Make over your morning routine with a Coaches' Choice smoothie (skim milk, chocolate, yogurt, and cappuccino mix), or jog through a Marathon (orange juice, bananas, and strawberries). Protein-packed options such as the World's Cup (skim milk, chocolate, peanut butter, and yogurt) are hearty enough to replace a meal or glue the legs of a G.I. Joe onto a Barbie. All smoothies are blended from scratch (no mixes are used) and can be spruced up with added nutrient blends to boost energy, metabolism, and the immune system.

The original Juice Stop was opened by a father-daughter team who wanted to give Nebraskans a fresh, healthy alternative to fast food and Pop-Tarts covered in honey mustard. The duo crafted sweet swigs for any reason or season and a bright, friendly atmosphere for serving them. Purchase two Groupons to double your daily intake of smoothie, or treat a pal to the gift of gulp to make up for forgotten birthdays or uninvited hugs.
