review: ...this would be what it would taste like.As a mom to a newborn, I am looking for any pick-me up. I jumped at the chance to try this via the Vine program, as I am fond of many of the Jamba Juice smoothies and I like apple flavor. The initial taste was quite pleasant, and the drink smells good when you open it. Unfortunately, the initial taste is followed by a flavor that is not good and is very reminiscent of bitter medicine. (While stevia, which is used as a sweetener in this beverage can have a bitter taste, that is not the flavor that I experienced.)What I liked:* No artificial green coloring. I imagined it would look like absinthe when I poured it, but it is more similar to a sparkling apple cider.* The smell is nice.* 70% juice* 90 calories per serving - not bad in terms of energy drinksWhat I didn't like:* The aftertaste.* What energy jolt?* The aftertaste.* Feeling like I needed a chaser after each sip.* The aftertaste.The aftertaste was bad enough that I felt it was a chore to drink the entire beverage. I didn't experience any major pick-me-up that was noticeable, either. I am sorely disappointed and certainly wouldn't recommend this product to people that I like.
question: Was it a good flavor?
