Good but Many Others are Better
I'll just say up front that I generally don't like beets. However, that wasn't the problem for me with this mix. It doesn't taste like beets to me.... and that's good. Maybe their flavor is overwhelmed by pomegranate, cherry, blueberry, cranberry, raspberry, and strawberry? Maybe it is the mushrooms, seeds, or whatever. No, the ingredients are all good, EXCEPT:<br /><br />Why aren't all those good ingredients certified organic?  This is for a health drink, right?<br /><br />Most of the ingredients contain natural sugars, so why add the monk fruit? I'm glad it isn't stevia, which gives me immediate indigestion. However, why add monk fruit? Yes, they're doing it to make the powder sweet. Why treat their mostly adult purchasers like children who will only eat fruits and vegetables that are sweetened?<br /><br />Use organic ingredients and lose the monk fruit. Do that and I'll be back as a customer.<br /><br />s natural sugars and further sweetened with monk fruit extract.<br /><br />My only gripe is that it already has 7 grams of sugar per scoop - personally, I don't understand why the manufacturer felt the necessity of adding the monk fruit (which doesn't really add much to sugar content,) to an already naturally sweet formula. I find it overly sweet and so have been using only 1/2 a scoop in my morning smoothie. Other than that, this is a great blend that I am really enjoying.
