VALDOSTA – Mellow Mushroom celebrates Veganuary with a limited time plant-based pizza while debuting a new mocktail.
Release:

In honor of Veganuary this month, Mellow Mushroom is celebrating plant-based dining by bringing back one of its most popular vegan menu items for a limited time… the Miss Mushroom pizza! Available now across all Mellow Mushroom locations through March 4, the Miss Mushroom is made with minced garlic, Mellow red sauce, fresh spinach, Follow Your Heart® dairy-free mozzarella, sliced portobello & caramelized onions, and is then baked and topped with Follow Your Heart® Dairy-Free feta crumbles and a sprinkle of chives.
Mellow Mushroom joins countless other brands in honor of Veganuary – a non-profit organization that encourages and supports people and businesses worldwide to move to a plant-based diet for January and beyond as a way of protecting the environment, preventing animal suffering and improving the health of millions of people.
Mellow Mushroom is vegan-friendly year-round, offering vegan pretzels, salad dressings, sauces, Munchies, specialty pizzas and plant-based tempeh protein across its 160+ locations. Guests can also substitute any regular cheese with Follow Your Heart® Dairy-Free Cheese. See here for all vegan options.
“We’re excited that Mellow Mushroom is celebrating Veganuary again this year and bringing back their famous Miss Mushroom pizza,” said Sandra Hungate, Veganuary U.S. Director. “Their delicious vegan options are making it easier for the growing number of people wanting to eat plant-based for animals, health and the planet, without having to give up the foods they know and love.”

On the heels of Mellow Mushroom’s company-wide rebrand announced in November, the brand debuts its new purple mocktail (the anchoring color of the refreshed brand palette), the Lavender Groove! A colorful addition to Mellow’s selection of non-alcoholic beverage offerings, the festive new drink offers diners an additional creative beverage option for a limited time, as well as a healthier alternative to traditional cocktails.
Available now through March 4 across Mellow Mushroom’s 160+ locations nationwide, the flavorful zero-proof beverage is mixed with subtly tart Monin Blueberry Purée, Monin Lavender Syrup with semi-sweet floral flavor and fresh aroma of lavender & garnished with a dried lavender sprig.
Available for dine-in only, the Lavender Groove pairs perfectly with bruschetta, the Enlightened Spinach Salad and the limited-time Miss Mushroom vegan pizza.
