Advantages: Great taste, good bottle design, fairly good price.

Disadvantages: Can rot your teeth, too much sugar.

Fanta Orange comes in a clear plastic bottle with a thin part about 2/3 of the way up which is great for helping to grip the bottle. It has an orange lid and a plastic label with the Fanta logo plus recycling information, nutritional information & information on the Coca-Cola company who manufacture the product. The recipe has been altered recently and now contains real fruit juice and no artificial flavours or colours and this is also wrote on the label.

The juice is a bright orange and is carbonated so once it is open there is a fizzing sound and if shaken too much the juice will fizz up and overflow making a real sticky horrible mess if left to dry. The juice is very sweet and I really can taste a slight 'real' orange fruit flavour to it. The bubbles are just right not to be over fizzy and this is best served ice cold or 'super cool' as the label advises. I think that this is quite a nice drink, it goes make my teeth feel a little sugary after drinking it but overall it's a nice refreshing drink that doesn't taste much different to before now the recipe has been changed. It is sparkling rather than ultra fizzy and this is just right for me. I do sometimes wonder if my tummy is orange inside from all these strangely coloured drinks! How random...

Overall I would say that this is a refreshing fruit juice drink with a few bubbles to it. The bottle is well designed and I paid £1.00 for my 500ml bottle from my local corner shop. There are 30 calories & 7.7g of sugars per 100ml so this should be enjoyed in moderation as one bottle is around 40% of your guideline recommend daily limit of sugars. I am rating this drink 4/5 and have marked it down one star because of the amount of sugar it contains.

Summary: Overall a nice fruit juice drink.
