I was recently chosen to review (and receive free samples of) a great new product: V8 V-Fusion ® Refreshers.
To be honest, we aren’t really juice drinkers. I mean, we like juice, it’s just not something that I buy a lot of. So what drew me to this campaign? The health benefits.
The busy schedule of our family and the athletic ventures of the kids make me increasingly more aware of (1) what we are fueling our bodies with and (2) the vitamins that are included.
It’s hard to find a juice that tastes good and has any nutritional content at all. It was normal for me to find 3% juice on containers. That was shocking to me. V8 V-Fusion ® Refreshers have between 20-25% blend of fruit and vegetable juices. Here’s another kicker: NO artificial colors (something I’m becoming very aware of), NO artificial flavors or preservatives.
There are four flavors: Black Cherry Berry, Cranberry Grape, Tangerine Passionfruit, and Peach Strawberry. We sampled Cranberry Grape and Peach Strawberry. Oh.My.Goodness — they were too die for. The kids absolutely loved them both. And, I have to confess, I snuck the last of the Cranberry Grape for myself. I’m sorry kids. It was me. It really tastes amazing.
Here’s what the kids had to say:
“They are very sweet and tasty. My favorite flavor of the ones we tried was Cranberry Grape. I loved that it tasted really fruity.” Avery – age 10
“They were really good whenever you have another fruit that you are eating because it puts lots of vitamins in your body. They were really good on a sunny, hot day. It was refreshing.” Piper – age 8
I had to admit that we went through these bottles really quickly. We drank them like we could never have them again. So, I decided that I would buy the Wal-Mart brand to see how it compared. I usually can’t tell much difference between the store brand and the name brand, but in this case €“ there was no comparison. the V8 V-Fusion ® Refreshers win hands down. I’ll probably end up just pouring the Wal-Mart bottle down the drain.
The suggested retail price is $3.49 for a 46-ounce bottle (that’s huge folks). As an Amazon lover, I’ll probably order these by the case. Right now, I can get 6 bottles of the Cranberry Grape V8 V-Fusion ® Refreshers on Amazon
Needless to say, we loved this product and we’ll be trying all the other flavors as we find them. If you are a juice drinker or are looking for a good alternative to a juice that doesn’t offer the nutritional benefits, I definitely recommend this product.
