Review: GojiLania Goji Blends

March 21st, 2009

Although Gojilania’s flagship product is a pure goji berry juice, I’ve decided to review their brand-new line of mixed berry drinks for a number of reasons, but the main one is that the mixed berry drinks have more to offer and I think they’ll be more popular than the goji-only product.

These drinks combine goji juice with a second berry (many of my favorites) to make four different mixtures. Goji with acai, pomegranate, mangosteen, or blueberry. It’s clear that each of these mixtures is heaviest in goji (the company’s specialty) with the second berry peeking through to give you a unique flavor combination. Pineapple juice, apple juice and other ingredients are used to sweeten and round-out the mixtures. There are no artificial ingredients or preservatives.

Overall, the quality of the juices is quite high and although it’s made from concentrates, the taste is not too diluted. All of the fruit combinations offer excellent antioxidant power and great taste.
