Aroma : Mmmm. The familiar scents of pomegranate and pineapple are the most prevalent, with hints of black currant and açai. And yes, you can smell the 41 grams of (natural) sugar too.
Taste : Sweet and tangy right out of the gate, thanks to the pineapple and pomegranate, followed closely by the fainter tastes of currant and açai. The small açai on the label must mean they were aware that the berry's flavor was diminutive. The tartness of the pomegranate lingers the longest, but doesn't dry your mouth out.
Price : About $1.99 or higher for a 12oz bottle, mostly at WalMart.
Ingredients : Organic pomegranate, organic apple and/or organic pear, organic pineapple, organic açai, organic black currant juices from concentrate, and natural flavors.
Other Comments : Frützzo has a fun, funky little site, but nowhere to purchase their drinks online. Actually, I couldn't find anywhere online to purchase them, but plenty of other reviews. But you're not reading those, are you? Good. They remain a small company, with a line of all-natural drinks based on pomegranate juice, known for its health benefits, including the fighting of free radicals.
Overall : The flavors are strong and balanced, though it seems lacking in açai flavor. The bottle is pretty cool too, and apparently they won awards for the design. All in all, I found it a refreshing, tangy beverage that is high in antioxidants, but also high in sugar. If I had my choice between this and a much cheaper juice blend, I would still probably stick with this.
Rating : 4/5 stars.
