To help me with this one, I called in some experts, my 6-year-old and her friends. I sat them down with ice-cold glasses of juice and didn&#8217;t let them know which glass contained which juice.<br \/>\n<strong>Minute Maid<\/strong> They found it really sweet and &#8220;orangey&#8221;. I found it too sweet as well with a slight tang in the finish, typical of the Minute Maid-brand taste. Not very natural-tasting in that it tasted as if it was forced to be orange and sweet. I let them taste the\u00a0option without pulp because most kids don&#8217;t like pulp. Not their favorite.<br \/>\n<strong>Trop 50<\/strong> Although not marketed toward kids but rather women watching their waistlines, it was uneventful taste-wise for kids. Does this mean that if a brand compromises taste for calories, you lose the flavor kids love? So is there juice for adults and juice for kids or is their a brand that meets somewhere in the middle?<br \/>\n<strong>Florida&#8217;s Natural<\/strong> This juice was really good. My finicky first-graders chose this one, hands down, and I actually enjoyed it as well. It tasted more like fresh-squeezed than the others and was perfectly balanced between sweet and flavorful. Very smooth finish, excellent flavor, full of vitamins, antioxidants, folate and potassium. Great price, available everywhere.<br \/>\nAre there grocery items you&#8217;d like to see reviewed by FoXx?
