This snoop is half RAVE, in love with this healthy juice cocktail, half RANT because the marketing trickery means I can’t get another one. Arghh, you get us hooked Waitrose with an offer, (I know that’s point but I’d rather not know how much I like the healthy drink I can’t really afford) we fall in love then when we return to buy another every other Mockingbird option is on offer except the one you want. Do you bite the bullet and buy anyway? The marketing incentive has worked, I love the product, want to buy again, but just can’t do it. I have to wait until it’s back on offer. And even though every other flavour is now on offer, do I try a different one, no, in my annoyance at not being able to buy the one I want I abandon the brand completely for something completely different.

Vegan friendly and cold pressed to maintain nutritional value I would never probably have purchased this juice except that the price tag was slashed from a staggering £4.40 in Waitrose to a budget friendly £1.80.

I was going for the slightly less healthy Waitrose own brand banana coconut smoothie at £2.00 for 750ml so the same size bottle and 93kcal per serving when confronted with the red label special offer of the Mockingbird Raw Hydration drink, a pineapple, coconut lime and aloe Vera combo, I know a bit unusual but as well as the cold pressed juice it contains chicory root acting as a powerful prebiotic (inulin). It contains a variety of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fibre that boost gut health, improves digestion, helps regulate blood sugar, and supports weight management. In addition all these essential vitamins in one single serving Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) B6, and Vitamin B12. It is designed to provide 100% of your daily intake of these vitamins in a specific serving size.

What does it taste like. Well it’s not sweet so if you like a sweet juice it may not be for you, but I loved it and will definitely be purchasing again. You can taste the pineapple juice for sure but the other ingredients give it a mixed juice cocktail more interesting and exciting than just a standard pineapple juice. Difficult to describe because I’ve never had anything like it before. I like it in the morning served chilled. It’s refreshing, flavourful and tropical. The kind of healthy juice cocktail you’d get in a 5 star resort or spa.

Two thumbs up from me. Way better than innocent.
