Cascade Ice - Tropical Citrus

In my ongoing effort to dig up wherever Unique Beverage is hiding their Cascade Ice information, I picked up this tropical punch at my local Albe's, and waited for what seemed the right time to open it, which was right after a plate of homemade mouth-burning turkey burritos. After my taste buds were thoroughly singed and anticipating liquid relief, Cascade Ice came to my palette's rescue.

Upon cracking the seal, I was happy to stick my nose down into the neck, and take a whiff of what reminded me of a big bowl of cut up fruit. A few swigs later, I was able to taste again, and caught traces of papaya and mango, not picking up so much on the citrus, which would be orange and grapefruit if I'm recognizing the fruits on the label correctly.

Overall it has a nice, sweet flavor, fruity and a tad sour. It seems a little sweeter than the others I have tried, but still has the same amount of sugar, about 32 g per 20 oz bottle. Still trying to find out about this company, which mainly produces energy drinks, but they also have a line of Cascade Ice sparkling water.

Ingredients: Water, organic cane sugar, citric acid, natural flavor, ascorbic acid, monopotassium phosphate, magnesium lactate, calcium lactate pentahydrate, red cabbage extract (color), Guarana Seed extract, niacin, panax ginsing root extract, d-calcium pantothenate, chromium polynicotinate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, chromium picolinate, cyanocobalamin. (don't worry, all those things you can't pronounce are vitamins)

Again, this one gets a 4.5 out of 5, pending any replies to my emails.
