Review: V8 V-Fusion + Tea (and giveaway!)

by Heidi on November 15, 2010

This is a sponsored review by BlogHer and V8 V-Fusion + Tea.

{disclosure: I was contacted by BlogHer to take part in this review, I was compensated for my participation however all views here are my own. Take that FTC. See official rules}

Being the health nut I am (most of the time), I was pretty stoked when I was recently contacted by BlogHer to participate in a review program of these fab new juices made by V8: V8 V-Fusion + Tea juices. I’ve been a fan of V8 Juices in the past so I was pretty excited to see what they concocted this time around.

Pomegranate

I really enjoyed this flavor. Generally I find pomegranate to be too tart for me. But this flavor was light, had the fruity taste of pomegranate but the tea made it a little more sweet and less tart. Yum! This flavor was definitely my favorite and given all the benefits we hear of pomegranate having, I would definitely buy this one again.

Raspberry

The raspberry flavor again, was sweet without being too sweet. I’m not a huge fan of tart drinks, so while usually I steer away from raspberry flavors. I enjoyed this one, not so much I’d buy it again but if you like raspberry but don’t necessarily like raspberry drinks I would give it a shot for it’s lack of tartness.

Pineapple Mango

Generally I like pineapple. But this tasted more mango than pineapple. I really like tropical juices, but I wasn’t so sure about the mango/pineapple combo at first but I found I really liked this flavor. I’d definitely buy it again.

V8 Juices

V8 V-Fusion + Tea juices have a combined serving of fruits and vegetables, green tea and only 50 calories. I try not to get more than 10% of my caloric intake from any juices but this is definitely a juice I would recommend. The green tea taste is subtle but definitely makes the flavors less sweet than they usually are. These juices also have antioxidant power from vitamins A, C, and E. Tasty and healthy? Sure why not!

Hubs is a juice SNOB but I think he’ll actually like these – I did. I’ve gotten him into other V8 juices in the past (tropical twist juices? YUM!) so I think the V8 V-Fusion + Tea juices will become a staple in our juice happy home.

My favorite is still the original V8. It is so zippy.

Karen December 10, 2010 at 1:35 pm

I want to try each of these as a hot beverage! And around the holidays I think they would be fun heated and add a cinnamon stick or peppermint stick maybe! For a shower idea I wonder what they would be like to add a little sparkling water or lemon-lime soda??

I haven’t tried all of the new flavors of V-8, but I really love the original (I sprinkle a little bit of pepper in my glass before I pour the juice in). Thanks for the giveaway.
