Manufacturer's Brand Overview: [Edit]
The Switch is 100% juice that is carbonated, making it a great tasting, healthy alternative to soda. The Switch has the bold taste and nutritional value of a fortified juice, with the carbonated refreshment of a soda. It is the perfect balance of juice and carbonation.


Orange Tangerine
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
Orange Tangerine is an innovative yet very simple concept -- take fruit juice concentrates and add carbonated water. The resulting product has a sophisticated but clean flavor that we absolutely love. The Switch Orange Tangerine is a great alternative to the overly syrupy beverages that we are typically inundated with. In addition, we like the glossy fruit covered labels and the simple 12 oz longneck glass bottle. Overall, we highly encourage you to try this product.

Fruit Punch
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
The Switch's take on Fruit Punch is a pretty good one, especially since there are hints of real fruit flavors (pineapple, cherry, orange). This flavor, like the other varieties of The Switch, uses 100 percent juice, so it's no surprise that the product has a taste that's reasonably true to nature. As mentioned in the Very Berry review, we think that the biggest risk for the product is its similarity to the Very Berry flavor, which is also basically a "fruit punch." Overall, an above average tasting product, but we're not sure that The Switch line benefits from two very similar products.

Kiwi Berry
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
The latest flavor from The Switch is Kiwi Berry, which also features a new, re-branded look. The flavor is sweet, but it's a natural flavor that derives its sweetness from fruit juices (there's no added sugar). The only "filler juice" that they've used is apple, but it's not something that really impacts the flavor. Overall, it's definitely an enjoyable product. As far as the new look goes, this is definitely a marked improvement over the last round. They've managed to give the brand some personality again -- and that's never a bad thing.

Very Berry
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
Very Berry is a nice twist on traditional fruit cocktails. It has a tart berry flavor which is sweet, but not overwhelming. There are distinguishable strawberry and raspberry flavors, resulting in a taste that feels very natural in the mouth. It finishes up a bit on the sweet side, but overall Very Berry is a very pleasant experience. Perhaps our only question for this product is if consumers will be able to differentiate between Very Berry and the Fruit Punch variety.

Black Cherry
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass bottle
BevNET Review:
Out of any of the flavors, The Switch Black Cherry definitely has a flavor that most closely resembles that of soda. Still, it's 100% juice (reconsituted with sparkling water) and this definitely gets some extra marks in our test. Overall, the flavor is quite good as well -- it's lighter and more fruity than a standard black cherry soda. Definitely worth a try.

Grape
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass bottle
BevNET Review:
Grape Switch is a relatively good beverage, but it definitely is not as good as some of the other flavors. Specifically, we would have expected a lot more grape flavor in this product. Instead, it has a somewhat weak grape flavor and you can taste the apple juice used in the product. Overall it's still good, but as far as The Switch brand goes there are better flavors. The only reason we'd reach for this flavor instead of one of the others is if we were looking for something slightly less sweet.

Apricot Peach
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
Apricot Peach is a very refreshing carbonated fruit beverage that has a very refreshing natural fruit flavor. Any why wouldn't it? This product is made with 100% fruit juice (from concentrate) -- so you can't really get a more natural shelf stable product. In adition, this product is one of the few beverages we have tried that actually has a natural tasting peach flavor. Overall, a fine product.

Watermelon Strawberry
Category: Juice: Sparkling Juice; Packaging: 12 oz glass
BevNET Review:
The Switch Watermelon Strawberry is the strongest, most tart flavor in the product line. In addition, this flavor is the least natural tasting of the entire product line and, therefore, we think that this flavor needs some improvement.
