When I received the products, they were wrapped in this cute turquoise wrapping. Seriously made me feel like I just un-wrapped a bit of summer:) You can see what I mean in the picture above.
The items I tested were the Coconut Water, Coconut Water with Pulp and the Acai Juice. Zola even threw in a fun pair of green sunglasses:)
Let me first tell you about the Coconut Water with Pulp - I have to be completely honest on this, I am not usually a pulp drinker or lover. So I did 2 things. I poured a little in a glass so I could just try it plain and cold at first. Then I froze the remainder and made myself a nice little ice slushy drink with it. Pretty much I just ate it that way with a spoon. When I tried it plain as a drink at first, I will say it wasn't bad. But like I mentioned I'm not really a fan of pulp anything, so for me once I put it more into a slush drink I liked it a lot better this way, and didn't notice the pulp:)
This drink is stocked full with Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium as well as real pieces of Coconut.
So the next drink I tried was the Coconut Water, this one I enjoyed a bit more. The coolest part about this drink, its an amazing workout recovery drink! Especially for runners!!! This drink has as much potassium as a banana.. Yup!! Way cool, huh! You could get your hydration and recovery all in one for less than 60 calories! (Let me tell you, that is a MUCH better recovery drink than a sports drink that can have 200+ calories in it.) This drink is a little refreshing too! I have had Coconut Water before on a trip I took to Hawaii once, and this one brought back some good memories!
So now we get to my FAVORITE one, the Acai Berry Juice. Okay, so I absolutely LOVED THIS ONE!!! I could drink one of these with lunch or even breakfast any day! I was already using Zola's Store Locator a few minutes after trying this on. I'm lucky there are 3 locations within a few miles of me (YAY).
This is a rich purple berry drink that is stocked full of Antioxidants, and Heart Healthy Omega Fatty Acids. In my opinion a drink like this is a great one to add to a regular diet just for health reasons! When you drink this, you'll seriously feel like you are drinking straight from a berry. It's just a fabulous taste! I love this drink! They have it with Blueberry & Pomegranate too. I am already looking forward to trying those as well. If you give this one a try, you're going to love it!!!
I really enjoyed trying these drinks out! This is a great company that obviously cares a lot about how they make their products. They are healthy, organic, gluten free and of course vegan free. So they can fit into almost any diet. If you're in the mood to try something new and delicious, give Zola a try!

So let me ask you, have you ever tried Zola before? What are your favorite drinks?
If you haven't tried any of them before, which one would you prefer to try first?

I've never heard of Zola, but being in Australia, sometimes we live under a rock (seriously sad, but true).
ReplyDeleteIt will prob be a while yet until it comes out here. We've only just gotten Chobani in the last 6 months.
They do sound nice though.
