So my second mission from Smiley360 (an awesome free sample website), was to try out Emergen-C. Now, I’m pretty familiar with the assortment of Vitamin C supplements, from plain old Vitamin C supplements to Airborne to Emergen-C, I feel like working in theater where sick days aren’t an option has made me something of a connoisseur of things that will keep me healthy. However, I’ve only had Emergen-C Raspberry previously. This pack came with that flavor as well as Super Orange, Cranberry-Pomegranate, Pink Lemonade and Blueberry-Acai.
My initial taste test I ran with true and trusted Raspberry. I mixed it in with some white grape juice (because I’ve never been a fan of any of these supplements mixed with just water). Same familiar taste and who can go wrong with 1,000 mg of Vitamin C? Next I mixed in the Super Orange into a smoothie with greek yogurt, bananas and a little orange juice. It was awesome! No grittiness and it enhanced the orange juice flavor. My last mixture was for the 21+ crowd only – Cranberry-Pomegranate Emergen-C and vodka. Surprisingly good cocktail and I like to think I was killing cold virus’ on multiple fronts. Finally, the big test, I mixed the pink lemonade into plain water. Definitely not my favorite concoction of the group, but surprisingly not awful. It seemed a little grittier than the others, but I didn’t really mind. I think in the future, I would just mix it into a preexisting lemonade drink. One more free sample flavor to go, but I haven’t figured out what I want to mix that into yet.
Emergen-C is also much more cost effective than Airborne and both seem to have the same results (Emergen-C does it with much better flavor too).
