Tropicana - Orangeade — 

I discovered a delicious new drink recently, and want to share it with the world!  I'm not very into carbonated drinks, as they are just so harsh tasting.  My son, who has acid-reflux, has to limit his intake of these soda beverages because of the carbonation as well.  Orange juice is something we all love, but again....the acid in the orange juice can be harsh.  The solution?  Tropicana Orangeade!

Tropicana Orangeade is a refreshing, light tasting beverage that isn't carbonated or overly sweet.  Unlike other orange sodas, it doesn't have a thick or syrupy consistency, and goes down smooth like a Hawaiin Punch drink.  I absolutely LOVE this drink, and the best part about it is, my son can drink it too without any acid-reflux reaction.

Tropicana Orangeade can be found virtually everywhere, however, it's not usually included in weekly sales or specials.  The full price for a twelve pack normally runs about $ 4.99.  This delicious beverage is available in many different packaging and sizes, for various prices.  You can purchase a 64 ounce container in the refrigerated section of your grocery store for around $ 3.00.  I can usually find a large bottle of it for $ 1.25, so buying a twelve pack is cheaper.  You can also find 2 liters of Tropicana Orangeade for around $ 2.00.

The calorie intake for an 8 ounce serving of Tropicana Orangeade is 130 calories.  There are 30g of sugar, 33 carbs, and 100% allowance of Vitamin C.  They do make a sugar-free Tropicana Orangeade, but I have never tasted it myself. 

If you enjoy the taste of an orange beverage, but can't handle the harsh carbonation of regular soda, or the acidity of orange juice, you'll like Tropicana Orangeade.  I highly recommend it.

Girl you really got me hooked on this stuff! My best friend asked me to stay with her the other night after a long evening of dance rehearsals and I took a 2 liter bottle to her house. Yesterday I went to the Walmart in my area and I found the 12-pack for $4.78. Now I can take it to work with me! Thanks for introducing me to a great beverage!

I was at Walmart in the soft drink aisle and saw this in a 2 Liter bottle and remembered your review. I got a bottle for $0.99 and am almost finished with my first glass. You were right, this is some good stuff!

This is something I would want to try. My family also found a low citrus acid orange juice for me because I was also having problems with acid reflux. Hmm...what was the name of that wonderful product?
