Review of 'Oasis' Classic Tropical Passion

Oasis -- Classic Tropical Passion (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: hmm, pleasantly surprised to find that this almost tastes fresh and *not* from concentrate! It's got a bit of thickness to it...kinda like a fresh mango juice consistency. What's more, I appreciate that the flavour actually reflects the tropical fruit and that it's not overpowered by the orange juice. It's nicely sweetened -- not sugary or too sweet at all.

Where to buy: Freshco, Fortinos, Real Canadian Superstore

Ingredients: water, concentrated (apple and/or pear and/or grape, orange, passion fruit, pineapple, kiwi, lemon) juices, purees of (peach, guava, apple, mango), vitamin C.

So sure, it's from concentrate, but dang, it's a pretty good blend! The only downside is that it's got a hefty amount of calories for not a whole lot of vitamin C or any other nutrition. So...eating an apple, having some nuts, coconut water, and a host of other snacks with similar calories would give you a lot more nutrition....just putting that out there.

This would be a great mixer -- I'd be interested in buying this again at Christmas time to mix cocktails!

Take a whiff of this before you drink it and take in the tropics...wow...it smells SO delicious....and it honestly tastes just as great.
