It's pretty tart but if I add a little water, that cuts the tartness and it tastes very good. My favorite is the guava, least fave, mango. It feels good to drink something besides Ensure and water. Thought others might want to give it a try.

I buy that buy the case usually, because if my grandkids come, they love it and I don't get any. LOL but it's better for them than pop.
