When I first stumbled upon a small 8 ounce container of Cuties Juice-
Clementine + Mandarin Blend, I found myself smiling at the way they
advertised the drink. It comes in a small bulbous plastic container,
colored a bright orange, and it features a little cartoon smiling face
on it. Then I looked over at the price, $1.89 for this micro tiny
container!? There had to be a reason.
Well, naturally there was, this little orange Cutie, contains 2
servings of fruit in every bottle. That is not all though, its gluten
free, sugar free, all natural, no preservatives, has a total of 6 cuties
tangerines in it and contains 150% vitamin C. Basically it's a itty
bitty bottle of healthy goodness, and with anything healthy on today's
market, you pay, and you pay big.
The curious consumer I am though led me right to plopping it into my cart, and waiting to get home to try it out.
Flavor:
Now the sense before drinking it tell you that you're about to taste
some ultra ripped vitamin packed orange juice. However, this is
tangerine juice.
Cuties Juice- Clementine + Mandarin Blend is a strange hit to the taste buds at first, it definitely has a blast of tangerine flavor and I
tasted that right away.
It's sweet, but not sugary, and it has a sort of vitamin-y aftertaste that is very subtle, but obvious enough.
I liked it a lot, but the packaging leans more towards getting kids to
like it. To me though, this juice is something that an adult would
prefer over a child, and should be marketed as such.
No the thing about the juice is that even though the container is so
tiny, I actually could not stomach drinking the entire 8 ounces due to
this vitamin like aftertaste that sort of sticks to your tongue.
I like that I can save half the container for another day though.
However it's designed to give you 2 servings of fruit, and if you can
only get through half the container, getting in those daily requirements
of fruit intake makes it tough.
Overall:
It is good, has a nice flavor I have never seen come from juice
before, but at the same time has this aftertaste that you get sick of
very quickly.
All in all, I would till recommend it to others, but the price needs
to come down. You can get an entire boxed container of 100% orange juice
for just a few cents more.
