Naked Juice: protein zone double berry smoothie
A few days ago, I was in the grocery store and super hungry. Everyone knows it’s not a good idea to shop while hungry, so as we passed the smoothie case in the produce department, I picked up the Naked Juice protein zone double berry smoothie.
93% juice including apples, strawberries, blueberries and banana. 16 grams of hunger-killing protein. But oh gosh, it was vile, vile stuff. How can a Smoothie be so GRITTY? It was actually so gross that after complaining about it (and grabbing a Simply Lemonade to wash the flavor out of my mouth), I then had to convince my friend to try it. It was so gross that I needed a witness.
Come on, Naked Juice, you can do better than that!
i love all naked juice! i kinda like the grittiness. i dont know. is that weird? nothing beats green machine though. thats for sure!
Hey,
I had it today. As you said it was not that good.
Best,
N Jay
great post as usual!
I actually like Naked Juice’s Double Berry and Mango flavored smoothie. In fact i know several people that love them and buy them in bulk. Everyone had different taste buds. To each his own.
The review is about the “protein zone” version of the double berry – which is different than the normal double berry. The protein zone ones have added soy/whey protein and the powder is very apparent in drinking it. I still like the flavor but it took a few sips to get used to the powdery texture.
