Naked Juice
Naked Juice wisely chooses their motto as “Nothing to hide”. As far as the ingredients go, they really do have absolutely nothing to hide. These smoothies are made with no added sugar or preservatives and are loaded with antioxidants. The Naked Juice Company also admits there is a pound of fruit in every bottle. These smoothies are so delicious considering they come in a plastic bottle. I truly think it would be hard to whip up a better mango smoothie than the one Naked Juice offers…and a human is probably not even making it; a massive machine is!
I have always enjoyed making smoothies as a kid and would dream of having my own smoothie parlor in a mall…weird, but it was kind of an obsession. I even named my smoothies; for instance my blueberry and blackberry smoothie was named “The Blue Whale”, etc. I always kept them plain and simple. I had over a dozen smoothie recipe books but would blow off any recipe that was too exotic…which was about every recipe. Ice, OJ, fruits, yogurt and that’s it. Naked Juice follows the same strict rules I did, which is why I am so in love with these drinks.
On the side of each bottle, they tell you how much of each fruit is in each bottle. I nearly choked when I read there were one and a half oranges, one and a half apples, a half of a mango and a hint of banana in one bottle. I drink these smoothies pretty darn fast so it is quite interesting to know I can consume that much fruit in less than 2-3 minutes. There are dozens of flavors, but my favorite is the orange mango. They have recently come out with a smoothie with fewer calories, which may appeal to some since these drinks are somewhat high in the calorie count. Coconut water is used in those low calorie smoothies. I just drank both the new pomegranate guava and orange mango smoothies and I am definitely aware I just O.D.’ed on antioxidants.
Lucky for all of you Kent residents reading this, they sell Naked Juice at the Kent snack bar, so go grab yourself a smoothie that tastes so homemade it could be straight out of your own blender.
