Fuze | Black/Green Acai

Black tea and green tea mixed in the same bottle – I like the concept.  I wasn’t sure how it was going to taste, but I assumed Fuze would make it tasty based on my past experiences with Fuze products.  Keep in mind, this is also Acai flavored…

It literally took me three drinks to figure out what I was tasting.  One thing I can say for sure about this beverage, you’re not going to be bored drinking it.  The first drink is just a super sweet berry blast (grape-like).  I’m talking big-time sweetness in every drink of this beverage.  I was really stretching to taste any tea in this mix.  The big tea flavor just wasn’t present.  I’m getting a light black tea flavor, but I can’t find the green tea.  The sweet berry flavor (Acai Apple flavor) just totally dominates this beverage.  You have to be in the mood for a sweet drink when you grab this bottle. There are more than 30g of sugar in each bottle (Crystalline Fructose).  The bottle label  boasts 133mg of Polyphenols, 225mcg Folic Acid, 138mg Vitamin C, 17 IU Vitamin E, 37mg Vitamin B Complex (for the label readers).  For me, this is a fun ready-to-drink beverage.  It has an enjoyable smooth berry flavor with soothing sweet notes, but the tea flavor was really missed by this consumer.

Let me start with some of the highlights on the bottle label: Polyphenols – 130mg, Folic Acid 225mcg, Vitamin C – 135mg, Vitmain E - 17 IU and Vitamin B Complex – 36mg (B3 – B5, B6 – B12). Contains equal antixoidant capacity as 2 servings of vegetables per bottle. Measured by Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (*ORAC).

The flavor of the beverage is almost juice-like. It has a tangy orange flavor with a sweet aftertaste. It’s very smooth with no carbonation. The white tea flavor is very light; therefore, if you enjoy a strong and authentic flavored white tea, you’ll be slightly disappointed. The dominant flavor is easily the orange-ginger. It’s a very flavorful beverage. If you like sweet-orange flavored RTDs (ready-to-drink), you’ll like this one. I was very happy with the overall flavor…other than the fact that it might be too sweet for some. Fuze’s orange blossom white tea is a beverage that both kids and adults will enjoy. The bottle contains 18 fluid ounces. The nutritional facts state: 120 calories per bottle and 30g of Sugar per bottle.
