Advantages: Sweet and refreshing

Disadvantages: Ridiculously high in calories?!

I don't really drink much alcohol, mainly because I just don't like the taste of it, I never have. This Shloer is the perfect alternative when you are out if you don't want to drink, but still want to fit in with everyone. I have drunk this for years, and tried most of the different flavours, but I definitely do prefer the taste of this red grape one above the rest. They are all really nice, but this one is my favourite.

Shloer comes in a 750ml glass bottle with a screw top, so it's easy to get into the bottle. It is a non alcoholic fruit juice drink. It is currently on offer in Tesco, buy one get one free, at £2.09 each which is a bargain. They do regular offers including £1 a bottle, or sometimes 2 for £3, so it is definitely not an expensive drink.

This sparkling red grape drink is the closest drink to wine you can get, it is a deep red colour. It looks like wine in your glass and I remember when I was younger, it made me feel all grown up with a glass of this at parties! It is slightly fizzy, and tastes really sweet. The flavour isn't too sweet or sickly though, it is really light and refreshing, so you can drink a lot of it, without getting sick of it!

Shloer is available in loads of different flavours including white grape, summer fruit punch, grape and apple, and raspberry and cranberry. They are all nice, sweet and refreshing and go really well with a nice meal. It is a drink everyone can enjoy.

Shloer is made with real grapes, and it is free from artificial sweeteners, flavours and preservatives. This red grape version has 174 calories per 100 ml which is actually a lot! If you think of a can of coke which is 330ml, they usually have around 140 calories, so if you drink 300ml of this Shloer your actually consuming 544 calories?! That is a downside to this drink, otherwise it would be perfect!

It is a nice trendy bottle, looks and tastes gorgeous and even though it is high in calories, I will continue to drink it, especially when I don't want to drink at meals or parties!

Thanks for reading my review x
