End of Summer Fun with Fruit Shoot

When I was a little girl, there was this off brand soda called Tahitian Treat.  I don't even think they make it any more.  It was red and syrupy, and it was a huge treat when my dad would let me get one--usually for a special picnic lunch or something along those lines.  I loved it.  It was probably full of high fructose corn syrup and Red 40, but you know how it is with treats.  They make you feel good.  

Fortunately, today, we have better options.  Fruit Shoot is one of those.  You can find it in mini marts and gas stations and grocery stores.  But it has NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, and NO ARTIFICIAL COLORS.  In fact, the bottles are red (green, purple, orange) but the drink is not colored.  The red drink contains:  water, sugar, apple, strawberry, and raspberry juices from concentrate, malic acid, black carrot juice extract, potassium sorbate, natural flavor, and sodium citrate.

The brand is currently running a fun promotion, the Have A Ball Stunt Hunt.  Make a video and submit to their website featuring Fruit Shoot and any ball of your choice.

My kids haven't finished drinking all 6 bottles we picked up yet, but once they do, we'll get a video of Katie bowling with the bottles.  In the meantime, here's my boys enjoying their Fruit Shoot drinks on the trampoline:
