Review: Bossa Nova SuperFruit

April 18th, 2009

I like these types of mixtures, offering a key berry (in this case Acai) along with one other fruit. The result is a great-tasting, and very simple and pure formula with no fillers and no artificial sweeteners (it’s sweetened with agave nectar). These juices are somehow more fresh tasting than other acai mixtures. The combinations are well chosen for flavor and antioxidants and the price is reasonable.

Manufacturer’s Description

Acai is hailed as a top superfruit for its antioxidant power. Bossa Nova’s acai is sustainably wildharvested from the Amazon and specially processed to retain the best of the berry’s nutritional promise.

Key Fruits & Berries

Acai
Passion Fruit, mango, blueberry, or raspberry

Taste

A strong taste of both acai and the second fruit in fairly equal proportions. This juice has a nice, strong taste and is slightly sweet and slightly fruity. The acai-only juice is slightly bitter.
