Natalie's

Product Type:Juice: Fruit Juice; Container: 32 oz HDPE
BevNET Review: Natalie's continues their citrus based fruit juice line with blackberry limeade. Unlike the orange and grapefruit juices, the blackberry limeade is only 47 percent juice. The other ingredients are water, lime juice, blackberry puree and sugar (29g per 8 oz. serving). That said, the product is quite appetizing. The sweetness of the blackberry hits your palate first which gives way to a subtle tart lime flavor at the finish. As part of the "Hand Crafted Seasonal Blends" line extension, the blackberry limeade comes in a proprietary 32 oz. PET bottle. The label strays from those seen on the other SKUs; specifically the lime colored accents on the label,when pinned against the dark berry colored juice, really help add personality to the product. Overall, the blackberry limeade is a well crafted juice with a pleasant flavor profile presented in a clean and simple package.Reviewed on: 8/11/2011

BevNET Review: The orange mango peach juice from the brands "Hand Crafted Seasonal Blends" line extension is our least favorite in the entire lineup of Natalie's Juices. The blend is 100 percent juice from orange juice, mango puree and peach puree (from concentrate). The mango only exists in the juice's nose and becomes indistinguishable upon sipping. The tangy orange juice dominates the flavor leaving just a note of peach lingering after the finish. Packaged in the same 32 oz. PET bottle as the blackberry limeade, the orange mango peach falls to posses the same personality. Overall, the orange mango peach is not a bad tasting juice, but the flavor falls short of its name.Reviewed on: 8/11/2011

Product Type:Juice: Fruit Juice; Container: 64oz HDPE
BevNET Review: Natalie's 100 percent natural Florida grapefruit is as simple as the name suggests. The no-frills approach to the product certainly allows for the fruit juice to take center stage here. The juice has the familiar tartness found in a fresh grapefruit with a healthy dose of pulp that makes this product feel almost homemade. Natalie's packaging is simple and clean. The 16 oz. bottle has a minimalistic label on the front panel which allows for the color of the juice to stand on its own. The juice is "gourmet pasteurized" (we are not sure how that is any different than non-gourmet) and it does not contain any preservatives meaning this product must always be kept refrigerated. Overall, we think Natalie's grapefruit juice is a nice addition to the high end, fresh juice market.Reviewed on: 8/11/2011
