Advantages: Good Value, Fruity Taste

Disadvantages: Not as Concentrated as Some

We get through more and more fruit juice as the warmer weather approaches. In winter, we get accustomed to only having to buy a few cartons a week, if that, but it's been a bit sunny lately and the fruit juice has been disappearing out of the fridge quick-smart. The Mrs decided we need to try something a bit more economical and we spotted this in Tesco. It costs just over £1 (I'm afraid I can't remember exactly) and that's for a big two litre bottle. I think that's excellent value for money compared to many similar fruit juices.

This is made from 32% fruit juice including all kinds of tropical fruits like mango and passionfruit (the two I can taste the strongest). It's a really strong, fruity and almost tangy taste that's also really refreshing to drink cold. It's sweet in a naturally fruity way rather than an artificially sweetened way which I think is important.

This bottle stays good for up to five days after opening in the fridge which is good news for smaller families who aren't going to glug it all down in a day (as seems to happen around here).

All in all I think this is a lovely smooth, refreshing cross between fruit juice and squash that represents really good value for money. We'll definetely be buying this again and expect it to become a regular in our house. Being only 32% fruit juice, I do think we'll continue to buy some of the cartons with higher fruit contents too though to make sure we get a bit of the healthy stuff in us at the breakfast table.

Summary: Highly Recommended
