Zola Superfood Smoothie Smooth Green Blend
First off this bottle seems way to cheap to be holding "Brazilian Superfruits." It's made out of that thick translucent plastic that just screams elementary school lunch to me. It's doesn't have the thickness that one associates with a smoothie. Maybe I'm wrong here, but isn't it the thickness that denotes a drink a smoothie? In my categorizing, this would just be considered a juice. I do have to say that the drink doesn't smell nearly as bad as I expected it to. It looks like the water that would be left over in a sink after doing dishes that had been sitting there for over a month. All of those complaints aside it is pretty tasty. I've never had Cupuacu or Graviola before, but the bottle tells me they are "powerfully nutritious." There is nothing I can really compare the taste to that I have tried before. I would definitely grab one of these again though.

Hansen's Smoothie Mango Pineapple
Mike and I were first introduced to Hansen's sodas when we found ourselves backstage at Warped Tour visiting friends a few years ago. We thought it was incredible, and since we couldn't find it around Buffalo, Mike ordered a case. It's been over a year, and this is my first run in with it since then. This is supposed to be a smoothie, but it doesn't have the proper consistency so I will claim it as a juice. It tastes like mango, with a slight pineapple aftertaste. It's pretty good. I didn't even realize until I was done that it has high fructose corn syrup in it. I would never have expected that from drinking it.

Hansen's Smoothie Pineapple Coconut
Hey. You know when you throw up and then try to cover up the taste with old popcorn? You do? Then number 1; I'm sorry. Number 2; you don't need to drink this.
For a company that has the best pop I've ever drunk, this stuff belongs in the filth can.
Here's how it went down...
I drank it and liked it while it was in my mouth. As soon as I swallowed it, I got a strange barf taste and I thought it might be the metal from the can so I poured it into a glass. I took another drink and it was worse. Afterwards I felt sick because you always are reminded of throwing up when your mouth tastes like, or recently tasted like, up-chuck.
I made this site with my bare hands and I wish I had created a 0 rating because this would get it.
Hansen's, I am happy that I reviewed this drink before your Cherry Vanilla Creme pop because you can only go up from here.

Chadwick Bay Enhanced Berry Blast
Jay, buddy. Take a load off, why don't'cha. You always review Smoothies so I'll take the wheel on this one.
In this car that I am now driving I will review this smoothie. I think that this smoothie is good. There is carrot in it and you can taste it. It they tried to hide it, you can't hide for long, my orange friend. The scent of it is very good, very fruity. The taste of it was...different. I'm not used to the consistency of smoothies. Think of a fruit punch with the texture of tomato soup.
There is no sugar added, which is a plus and it keeps the calories down. One might say it's good for you.
I've got to pull over. Jay has to use the turlet.

Chadwick Bay Smoothie
For a bottled smoothie this is pretty awesome. I was weirded out that it wasn't refrigerated when we got it, but then I saw that it was dairy free, and all was good in the kingdom of smoothies. It tastes like pureed strawberries with a little bit of banana mixed in. I'm not a fan at all of bananas, but it's so slight in this, it just gives a nice complementing flavor. It's also fairly inexpensive in stores compared to other smoothies.

Genesis Organic Smoothie Superfood
When I first took a sip of this, I thought it was juice. Only after tasting the chunks of fruit in it did I realize that it said smoothie on the label. I'm not a big fan of drinks with pulp and chunks, and this was REALLY chunky. That aside, I was hoping this would taste a lot more like other green juices I've had. Once again, I should have looked at the label instead of the color of the drink. As you can see, there is a giant banana on the label and this drink has a very strong banana flavor. The only ingredients in this are apples, bananas, and spirulina. I wasn't crazy about it, but that's because I generally don't like banana flavored drinks. Other than that, it was good and probably super good for you.

Bolthouse Farms Fruit Smoothie C-Boost
This is my "I feel like I'm about to die, I really need to get better" go-to drink. I mean this small bottle has 2400% of the recommended daily intake of Vitamin C. There is also a butt load of other vitamins and minerals as well. I know it's not really the cure all I pretend it to be, but I'll let myself continue to believe it. I was shocked to see that orange juice was not one of the ingredients. It's mostly a blend of acerola cherries, apple juice and mango puree. There are also some camu camu fruit and maitake mushrooms mixed in for good measure. On top of all the health benefits of the drink, it tastes spectacular. It has a nice thickness and it's just refreshing.

Bolthouse Farms Fruit Smoothie Blue Goodness
Blueberries galore! That is what this drink is. It's actually a mixture of a bunch of flavors, but blueberry is on top of that mountain of fruit. It's part of Bolthouse's smoothie line, so it's got a thicker consistency, but not as thick as some of their other smoothies. It's so hard for me not to drink an entire bottle of these once I open them up. They are just so good, not to mention healthy.

Bolthouse Farms Fruit Smoothie Green Goodness
I know this stuff looks completely disgusting. It looks like in no possible way could it be good. Well guess what? You should have listened to your mother when she said "Don't judge a book by its cover." This may just be the best Bolthouse drink.
It may contain Spinach, Broccoli, Algae, Artichoke and a variety of other things you wouldn't expect so find in a fruit smoothie, but you don't really notice any of them. The fruit holds the flavor strong and sweet. I can't really pinpoint any of the exact fruit flavors, but it's definitely fruity. It's also pretty thick which is great.
I also like to pretend that it has strong medicinal properties, which can heal any ailment that I have. Try to prove me wrong Mr. Wizard!

Naked Superfood Green Machine
The bottle says it all, "Looks weird, tastes amazing." It's made from a whole mess of fruit with the added "boost" of a whole mess of weird vegetables. It's nice to have a "health" drink that tastes great.
It's similar to the Bolthouse Green Goodness, but this just tastes better. It's thick and sweet and yes it "tastes amazing."
Okay I'm done with quotation marks for a while.
