Ciao! I am happy to see this product line, because I've always liked the normal San Pellegrino ethos, but found them to be too sweet. Now they're following the Spindrift model of "put just a little bit of actual juice in there", which is a great model. I decided to try out a fun drink because it's a Heat Wave and my house is, of course, 100+ degrees. However, I forgot that now I have OAS and Real Fruit makes me itchy. Surely fruit concentrate is like, heated at some point, and therefore shouldn't make me itchy? (I have an allergist appointment in August and will inquire about this, so stay tuned.) Anyway, maybe it's just the heat!? My physical form really stinks.
But this drink only stinks a little bit. The cherry is "sweet cherry", and for the first time I think I can distinguish between sweet and tart cherry, and I can say that sweet cherry is the medicine one. You'd think medicine would be tart, but no no. This is full on medicinal (whereas the tart one's juice was kinda like cranberry, which was good). But it's also a little bit sweet and got that orange/lemon undertone that all the SanPelis have, which makes it more palatable. However, cherry is not the move, unless it's paired with lime. They shoulda done lime. I will try another flavor later since I think I am mostly not that itchy and not dead in any case. Ciao!
