Product Review-Mott's Medleys

(picture taken from Mott's website)

One of the things that I love about coupons, is the ability to try new products for cheap or even free. When companies are trying to get the word out on a new product, the best way to do it, is through promotions. So normally a high value coupon, or a refund...maybe both! It is a great way to try new things.

I would like to start sharing some product reviews with you. These are all soley my opinion.

Recently, there was a .50/1 coupon for the new Mott's Medleys' juices. Vons had them on sale for $1.50. That price, with coupon doubled, made it .50. I had 5 coupons so I used them all. 5 juice jugs for $2.50!

While I am not a big juice drinker, my kids are. So I was kind of shocked when upon trying this, I found half full cups of juice on the counter. More of this juice was dumped down the drain than drunk.

This juice is a combination of fruits and vegi's, with little sugar added. "It provides 2 fruit/vegi servings in each glass. There are 3 different flavors, Tropical, Grape and Apple." For health reasons, this is obviously a GOOD thing. But when it comes to being a juice that KIDS will drink? Well it didn't fit the bill. Their claim is that the juice makes it easier for your kids to get more servings of vegi's. The lack of sugar made it just TOO strong. Even watered down my kids didn't enjoy it.

I realize that this makes me sound like I want my kids to drink more sugar! LOL

I still have three jugs in my pantry. I am glad I didn't pay full price. In the end, I would give it 2.5/5 stars. Why? For the health benefits.

Have you tried it? What did you/your kids think?

Sounds like the V8 Frusion juice. Eric really likes it, but the kids and I think it's nasty. Tastes too vegetable-y.
