Ceres 100% Juice

Ceres 100% Juice, 1 litre ($2.35)

Used to having fruit juices in conventional stand-alone flavors, it piqued our curiosity watching these fancy juice blend from Ceres, South Africa making to our supermart. Poetically named like 'Full Moon Harvest' and 'Whispers of Summer', it's good marketing to lure in the romantics.

This Summer, the beverage tasted exceptionally refreshing compared to a glass of ice cold Coke; minus the Caffines. Took some time finishing these packs to give you a brief run-down here.

Full Moon Harvest - Pear, Peaches, Berries
Cloudy in birch color, sweet and little sour with taste of Peaches and Pear.

Guava
Thickly cloudy in pink, tasted both of sweet and sour with tinge of bitterness! Most memorable of the lot.

Cranberry and Kiwi
Clear in transparent yellow - think apple juice, tasted sharply sour on a sweet tone, like apple juice but of a more interesting streak. An effective thirst quencher.

Whispers of Summer - Orange, Mango, Passion Fruits
Looked like Orange juice, and tasted almost like it until you note the clear hint of Passion Fruits layered in Mango flavor. Sweet.

Mango
Semi transparent orangey yellow, of the color of mango. Lightly sweeten, ripe mango with a nice aroma that you get from sucking on the hairy seed of the fruit.

Grape
Clear colored and tasted like the Ribena drink. Only, this is sweeter and more flavorsome. But if you compared it to Welch's grape juice; Welch's wins hands down.

Orange
Lightly cloudy with broken orange pulps floating about in orangey yellow liquid. Bitter, tangy and a little sweet. I relate this much to an orange squash than an 100% orange juice pack.
