Maui Wowi at Bike Week in Laconia, NH!

WOW. Who would have ever guessed that Bikers love smoothies?!? We made the hour and half trip up to Weirs Beach in New Hampshire to sell our smoothies and coffees to the bikers for the week at Laconia Bike Week 2008. We spent 9 straight days there. What an experience! It was our first time at Bike Week and we were very curious to see how our product would sell to the Bikers. Make no mistake about it, Bikers Love smoothies! They also know gourmet coffee when they see it and would line up every morning for either an iced or hot Kona coffee straight from the "Big Island". The Mocha Chill sold out in 2 days!!

In addition, We met many, many great people up there whom we are sure to be friends with many years to come. We introduced them to smoothie paradise too, and they continued to comment that they couldn't believe something that tasted so good was also good for you! Mango Orange was by far our biggest seller for the week. Special Thanks goes out to the girls from Outback Leather seal too, who were very helpful to us in helping hand out samples as well as keeping us entertained for the week while they gave free motorcycle boot shines to all who passed by. Many bikers would stop by to get their boots conditioned, get smoothie sample and head on over to the K-Cart for a smoothie, based on the girl's reccommendations.

Another Big Mahalo goes out to "Chickie" from George's Gourmet Grill for not only keeping us fed all week long with his delicious gourmet steak tip sandwhiches, grilled chicken sandwiches, 1/4lb. hot dogs, and sausages; but also for having his son, Chris and his girlfriend Annie give us a hand with samples and set-up/take down every day. Some of the nicest people you will ever meet!! They can be found all over Boston as well, including at all the Boston Cannons Pro Lacrosse games at Harvard Stadium. Be sure to stop in and get a steak tip sandwich if you're there! Tell them Maui Wowi sent you!

Maui Wowi at DeCordova Museum

On June 8th, Maui Wowi was invited to serve smoothies to the people visiting the DeCordova Museum in Lincoln, MA at the Annual Art in the Park Art Sale. We were honored to be invited and proudly showed up with the Ka'Annapali Cart, our all-natural delicious smoothies (black raspberry, mango orange, pina colada and strawberry-banana) as well as our Mocha Chill Coffee frappuccinos. We set records for smoothies served at an Art Sale and Lincoln, MA set records for Heat!! It was 97 degrees all day and we were melting, but it was a perfect day for a nice cold smoothie to keep everyone cool. All of the vendors selling art were also greatful we were there in the morning to serve them iced Kona Coffee. Even with the heat, we actually served a few people hot Kona coffee as well. All in all, a great day with some very talented artists! We look forward to being there again next year!

Maui Wowi serves up Smoothie Cocktails for Nuance!

What a way to start the weekend! Nuance knows how to kick off Summer and the weekend at the same time: just bring in Maui Wowi and their all-natural delicious smoothies, add some tequila, some rum, and some vodka, and you have yourself a party! On Friday, May 30th, from 4pm-6pm, we served our smoothies to the 300 people at Nuance, a software company located in Burlington, MA. They were having their summer kick-off and called on Maui Wowi to cater the event with our smoothies. They also took advantage of the fact that we can add alcohol to the smoothies! They chose to go with Strawberry-Banana and Pina Colada. We added either rum, tequila or vodka to each one and the crowd loved it. We also brought Hawaiian Leis for everyone, which always makes a party even better. Everyone had a great time and really got into the Aloha Spirit. Mahalo to Nuance for having us at their event!

Maui Wowi goes Hollywood!!

On Thursday, May 29th we had the pleasure of serving our smoothies, Kona Coffee, and Mocha Chill frappucinnos to the cast and crew of the upcoming Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds movie, "The Proposal". The movie, being filmed in Danvers, MA was looking for a way to thank the cast and crew for their hard work over the past few months. Todd Lieberman, the Producer of the film had frozen cappuccinos in mind. When his assistant, Jared, went out to search for a frozen cappuccino vendor, he came across Maui Wowi and immediately thought it would be an even better idea for the cast and crew. After deciding on the flavors (he went with strawberry-banana, cappuccino, pina colada, kona coffee, and Mocha Chill) we set up for over 2 hours right on the set. We had a ton of fun hanging out with everyone from both the cast and crew. They loved the drinks and the Mocha Chill was a huge hit!! Sandra Bullock had her assistant come back for another one she liked it so much! How cool is that? Better still, the next morning, I was reading the Boston Herald, as I do every morning, and began reading The Inside Track article. This very well known article keeps everyone abreast of the celebrity sightings in and around Boston and all the celebrity gossip. Well, how excited do you think we were to find Maui Wowi in the article!?! It was a small paragraph, but a sure sign of things to come and that Maui Wowi has arrived in Boston and is here to stay. Hopefully this is the first of many articles people will be reading about us serving our all-natural hawaiian smoothies at events.
