Advantages: Great taste

Disadvantages: Too sweet for some, very sugary

I'm not much of a fan of "squash" drinks, but Oasis Summer Fruits, which contains a rich mixture of apple, strawberry, redcurrant and cherry, has proven me wrong. It comes in 500ml bottles and usually retails for about 95p, although it's frequently in deals where you can get 2 bottles for as little as £1.50.

Nutritional Information (per bottle):
Calories: 90
Sugar: 21g
Fat: 0g
Salt: 0g

Ingredients:
Water, Sugar (Carbohydrate), Fruit Juices from Concentrates (5%) (Apple, Strawberry, Redcurrant, Cherry), Citric Acid, Flavourings, Stabiliser (Sodium Polyphosphate), Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate), Colours (Caramel E150d, Carmoisine), and Sweeteners (Acesulfame K, Aspartame, Sodium Saccharin).

Oasis Summer Fruits has a very pungent taste that's not too sweet, unlike a lot of squash drinks that try to compensate for their lack of fizziness by fortifying it with a cloying and saccharine flavour. It's got a very vibrant taste of fruit, and is a great thirst quencher if you're out in the Summer heat. That said, it does have a rather large amount of sugar in it, which perhaps isn't so good for those trying to diet. Still, the calorie count isn't that high, and I guess that as long as you don't overdo it, then it's a fine Summer drink that's extremely refreshing and also great tasting. I can see it being a tad too sweet for some, though, so I can't recommend it to everyone on that basis. If you like your drinks fruity and full of punch, then this is the way to go.

Summary: A sugary but tasty juice
