V8 V-Fusion Sparkling Review & Giveaway

I like juice…

…I especially like juice that has vegetables in it.

I also enjoy soda, but I hardly EVER drink it because I know it’s just not good for me. But, there’s something just so refreshing to have something sparkling and tingly touch your tongue. :D

So, here’s the compromise!

V8 V-Fusion has come out with a new Sparkling juice that has a full serving of fruits and veggies in every serving (1/4 cup of veggies and 1/4 cup of fruit). What? What?!? Genius.

The flavors are:

  • Black Cherry Pomegranate (the one shown here)
  • Strawberry Lemonade
  • Tangerine Raspberry

They are all just 60 calories for an 8-ounce can! They do have anywhere from 11-13 grams of sugar, but that is purely from the fruit. There’s no added sugar, artificial colors or flavors or preservatives. My kind of drink.

It’s seriously good. I first tried it when I was at BlissDom.

Eee….it was practically the only thing I wanted to drink while I was there, besides water. And boy, was it tasty! I slurped up the entire can in minutes. Mmm!

I can have another? ;-)  

Anyway. I’m so excited to finally be able to get some of this V8 V-Fusion Sparkling in my local grocery store. It’s supposed to be coming out at the beginning of May! Yay! :D

I may just have to bring a couple of cans to the hospital when I go to deliver! Maybe even get on the nurse’s good sides and share! ;-) That’ll work, right?

To celebrate the release of V8 V-Fusion Sparkling, I’m hosting an awesome giveaway!
