 Be Warned: If You're on Coumadin (Warfarin) You Should Not Drink This Pomegranate Juice Product April 24, 2008
J Scott Morrison (Middlebury VT, USA)

First of all, let me say that I didn't find this pomegranate juice product to be particularly tasty. I had read about the supposed healthful value of pomegranate juice, but I guess, after I got the shipment from Amazon, I should have read the label before I drank the juice. Reason? Because it contains not only pomegranate juice (and grape juice, et al.), it also contains cranberry juice. Now, I have nothing against cranberry juice per se, and I don't even know how much is in this product. But I am taking Coumadin (warfarin), a blood thinner, and the FDA has issued a specific warning that people on warfarin should not eat cranberries or drink cranberry juice because it interferes with the action of the warfarin.
Thus, I have two reasons not to recommend this product, at least for some people. First, it isn't all that tasty. And second, it could be harmful for people on blood-thinners.

 Great Tasting Clementine Soda and OK Apple April 24, 2008
M. A. Ramos (Florida USA)
10 out of 12 found this review helpful
This sparkling fruit juice has a slightly sweet-sour soda taste of Clementine juice. It is like Tangerine juice mixed with sparkling water and a touch of sugar. The first four ingredients listed White Grape, Apple, Lemon and Orange Juice that gives it its taste. I do like that the cans are small, they contain only 8.4oz/248ml of sparkling Clementine. It is just the right amount to satisfy your taste for the flavor for its 80 calories. Then I just go back to my usual drink, water.
The blackberry is very good as well, but the apple for my taste was only a 3 star drink. An Average Apple Flavored Drink: This sparkling fruit juice has a slightly sweet-sour soda taste of fruit juice. It is like Lemon-Apple juice mixed with sparkling water and a touch of sugar. The first three ingredients listed White Grape, Apple and Lemon Juice that gives it its taste. I did not find this to have a refreshing apple taste. I do like that the cans are small, they contain only 8.4oz and 90 calorie sparkling the sparkling juice. But if I were to buy one it would not be the Sparkling Apple.
Overall with the three flavors I have tried, I would rate this 4-stars now.
 Refreshing and Flavorful April 26, 2008

Izze All natural Sparkling Juice in 8 oz cans comes in an attractive can, although I prefer the bottles. It contains apple, grape, pomegranate, cranberry, pineapple, and lemon juices. The pomegranate flavor is the strongest but it is subtle. The cans advertise 70% natural juice and 30% sparkling water. It is a refreshing drink, and one I would buy.
As a medical professional I am bothered by the potential Pomegranate-Drug interactions. Like grapefruit juice, those of us on medication need to look for information. It is best to check with your physician.
The pomegranate is now immensely popular. Pomegranate juice is found in almost every grocery store in North America. There have been on-going research studies to prove that Pomegranate juice is helpful with cardiac disease, as an antioxidant and some forms of cancer. Please read the research with care.
Whatever the case, pomegranate natural juice and sparkling water has a refreshing taste and flavor. The 8 oz. cans are convenient and when cold is one of the most refreshing drinks available.

Refreshing, light, nice alternative to soda -- from a company with a conscience! April 24, 2008

This review focuses on the pomegranate and grapefruit flavors of Izze.
Izze's all natural sparkling juice is a nice alternative to soda. There is no caffeine, no processed sugar, and no unnatural ingredients. It is refreshing to read the ingredients and find that I recognize every ingredient! And they are all safe!
The pomegranate juice is mixed in with a bit of grape and apple juice, to mitigate a mild (but not unpleasant) bitter citrus aftertaste, somewhat like grapefruit juice. The sparkle has a feel closer to sparkling water than to carbonated soda -- and I like that. It is a distinctive flavor -- and I like that too. I wasn't sure what to think after just one can, but after trying it a couple of times I have found that it is quite nice.
I liked the ruby red grapefruit flavor all at once -- it has the perfect grapefruit flavor, the sweet tangy delicious zing, without the bitter aftertaste of grapefruit. It is not too sweet, but just right for that grapefruit flavor fix that I like now and again. This is the perfect size container, especially for my kids who also love the grapefruit flavor. Good stuff.
What I also like is that Izze appears to be a company with a conscience. Started by a couple of friends in 2003 who liked the idea of an all natural and distinctive beverage as an alternative to soda, Izze uses their product as a platform from which to promote awareness of the Global Education Fund (and other good causes, both environmental and global) that they support.
 a better than soda option April 26, 2008

OK here is the skinny (pun intended) of this "healthier" choice product...
When I thought of this apple product I couldn't help but think of comparing this to Martinelli's Sparling Cider.
---------------------------------------
Martinelli's 8.4oz bottle contains: Pasteurized 100% Pure Carbonated Apple Juice From U.S. Grown Fresh Apples, Vitamin C, No Water or Alcohol, No Concentrates, No Sweeteners or Preservatives.
Calories: 150
---------------------------------------
Izze's Sparkling Apple Juice, 8.4oz can contains 70% pure juice (white grape, apple and lemon) concentrates, sparkling water, natural flavor, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), niacinamide, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (vitamin B6)
Calories: 90
---------------------------------------
- Martinelli's is sweeter, whereas this is more of a tart apple flavor but it's good
- Martinelli's is more heavily carbonated, whereas this is lighter almost to a fault, to where it taste flat if the drink isn't cold
- 24, 8.4oz bottles of Martinelli's is approx $30, whereas this is 24, 8.4oz cans for around $22. I'm always excited about a cost savings.
- I like being able to throw a can in my backpack vs. a bottle so I have something on-the-go. Also the can is lighter than bottle and I don't have to worry about finding broken glass in my backpack.
- The vitamin content is only 10% of the recommended daily servers, per can. Thus, I'd rather take a multi-vitamin.
- This is not an energy drink, but a sparking juice. So no substitute for that Starbuck's or Red Bull addiction
OVERALL:
After reading a ton of books on health & fitness, watching the TV show "The Biggest Loser" and having trained for a triathlon. . .
This is a luxury vs. a need. You are better off drinking water and use those 90 calories to eat a couple of pieces of fruit, which is better for you and more satisfying.
But, if you need an alternative to soda, this may be a good choice to ween yourself off the soda and eventually transition to water.
