Trop50 Review and Giveaway (Canada)

One of the biggest things that I’ve been missing as I’ve been working on losing weight is fruit juice! While I love the taste of fruit juice, I realize that many of them are loaded with calories and sugar – things that I’m trying to curb in my diet.

What’s a girl to do (yes, I know I’m 40 but I still like to think of myself as a girl – it makes me feel young!)?

Lucky for me, I recently discovered Tropicana’s Trop 50. Described as 100% Fabulous with 50% Less Sugar and Calories, I couldn’t wait to give it a try!

I did wonder – how Trop50 can pack so much flavour and still have half the sugar and calories? Here’s what I learned.

Trop50 vitamin enhanced juice beverages:

Deliver 50 percent less sugar and calories than leading 100 percent orange and pomegranate blueberry juice beverages and are an excellent source of Vitamin C.
Are naturally sweetened with Reb A, a natural sweetener derived from the stevia
plant. Pure Via Brand Natural Pure Stevia Extract is the brand name for Reb A used
in Trop50.
Are made with 100 percent juice, contain added vitamins, water and are naturally
sweetened with Reb A.
Contain added vitamins (and minerals in the case of Orange varieties) and are Natural Health Products (NHPs).
Each 250 mL serving of Orange contains 50 calories, 13 g Carbohydrate (4% daily value (DV)), 10 g sugars.
Trop50 Pomegranate Blueberry is an excellent source of antioxidant vitamins C and E. Each 250 mL serving contains 60 calories, 14 g Carbohydrate (4% DV), 12 g sugars.

I love blueberries so I was really keen to try the Trop50 Pomegranate Blueberry juice. And 60 calories per cup? I was totally THERE!

I’ve never tasted pomegranate before, so I was interested in finding out how this juice would taste. I really like it! It is sweet without being cloying and a one cup serving is just enough to enjoy with a meal or when I have a hankering for something sweet!

I obviously inherited my sweet tooth from my dad, but he is now diabetic and I know he misses being able to drink fruit juice. When I showed him the Trop50, he had a look at the sugar content and was impressed by the fact that one cup only has 10 grams of sugar. He said that he would be able to drink it in moderation so I shared my Trop50 Pomegranate Blueberry juice with him and he was thrilled!

I’ve incorporated Trop50 Pomegranate Blueberry into my diet plan and I can’t wait to try the Orange varieties that are also available!
