Well in the other review that this ferret had done, complained a bit about juices from Ralph & Charlie’s not having enough vitamins and such.  You can find that review Ruby Red Grapefruit and Pomegranate juice here.   Well this ferret found out they do make at least one other juice that has at least 120% per serving (4 per bottle).  That is a lot of vitamin C for this little peppy guy.  Will this one discover another disgusting juice or one that can be used for enjoyment also?

This juice was not too sweet, it had a light citrus like flavor but more towards a fruit punch type of juice.  There was also another layer of flavor in the background.  Looking at the indgriendents, I subspect it is the passiflora.  This must be what gives the drink a slight flora aroma. If you don’t like flora aromas, then this drink is not for you, it was very light so it didn’t bother me.

Looking up passiflora, it seems to be flower with calming properties that is used for antidepressant, analgesic (pain-reliever), antispasmodic, sedative, central nervous system depressant.  I guess you get your vitamins and can relax also.  Did I feel relax?  Not so much, but I enjoyed this juice.
