Advantages: Tastes refreshing, One of your 5 a Day, Juicy and great for breakfast!

Disadvantages: None except we drink it too quick!

This is my favourite orange juice; it has a real distinctive orange taste and seems alot tastier then the other brands I have tried.

I am a bit of a bad un when it comes to eating fruit, I am good with my vegetables but just really don't like much fruit at all. I can't even eat bananas or berries as they seem to give me a really bad stomach ache. I kept eating them from time to time though as I thought surely you cant get a belly ache from a banana, but I seem to get one every time which is a disappointment as I find bananas quite tasty!

So with not eating much fruit I tend to drink alot of smoothies and fruit juices, I know they are not as good as the real whole fruit as you don't get the fibre but at least im drinking this rather then coke which I hear has lots of chemicals and 6 teaspoons of sugar. So surely orange juice is the better option.

I have 2 kids aged 1 and 3 and they love this orange juice, we tend to have it most mornings. But we are always running out of it every few days because we all love it so much

The packaging is quite distinctive although not very exciting to be honest, but clear enough and I know it's "not from concentrate" and its 100% pure!

I like the design of the packaging because you can recycle the carton in fact they say if you visit www.tropicana.co.uk you can always find out where to recycle it but I just put it in my waste paper bin as its made of a cardboard material.

It has a screwed top, and pours very easily. Also it lasts a good 5 days once you have opened it but it has never lasted that long in our house, we get through a carton probably in 2 days!

There are 2 different options you can go for the Smooth or you can opt for one with Bits. I have tried both of these but tend to go for the smooth as it just goes down better for me. Although I am not that fussy.

Tropicana comes in many different sizes you can get those tiny ones for about 80p, also if you ever eat at Mc Donald's they do them there. I always ask for one when they ask what drink I want as I don't drink Coke at all anymore, well maybe once in a blue moon!

The size we tend to go for is I think the biggest they do its 1.75 litre and if you head down to Asda they sell them for £2 which is great value considering one half the size is a good £1.70 or so.

The oranges are sourced from Florida and are very distinctive in taste and I have never come across any other orange juice that tastes the same way, there is just something different about this.

150ml of this juice gives you 1 of your 5 a day of fruit and vegetables.

You can also get some other flavours such as pineapple, and passion fruit pear and apple. I have yet to try these ones and will do one day.

I love this drink it is great for breakfast and anytime of day really. So can definitely recommend it!

Summary: Get one of your 5 a day from 150ml of this!
