Advantages: Great taste

Disadvantages: VERY sugary

A lot of these cheap juice drinks really wear their cheap price tag on their sleeve, but not Tesco's own Apple Juice. This juice is pungent, sweet tasting, but never sweet enough to make one recoil at a saccharine tone.

Open pouring, you'll immediately notice its strong, rich looking colour, and it has a wonderfully potent apple smell accompanying this. You might not even know from drinking it that it's apple juice from concentrate - it may not be as beneficial to your health as the more pricey brands, but it's still relatively good for you, except for the rather large dose (28.5g) of sugar in it. Still, the proper "pure" brand name juices still have sugar thrown in, so that's hardly a negative of only the cheaper brands! More on the price - it's only 56p, which is a steal when compared to the more premium juice brands which will cost you often closer to £2, and most often at least £1.45-50.

Given how this alternative tastes pretty much as good as the premium stuff, and is about a third of the price, it's a no brainer, particularly for those on a small budget. The sugar content isn't so terrible as long as you drink it in moderation, although considering how surprisingly good this tastes for a mere 56p, that's easier said than done!

Summary: Lots of sugar, but lots of taste
