good2grow beverages
Like a lot of moms, I try to expose my child to healthy food options. I want my daughter to be diverse in her eating habits and healthy in her consumption. I take great care when packing my preschooler's lunch for weekly Lunch Bunch. However, kids will be kids will be kids and there are times where she inevitable comes home requesting all sorts of processed, pre-packaged, not-good-for-you treats (can you say, Lunchables?!) that I refuse to purchase.
A prime example of the power of peer influence are those bottled juices with character head sippy tops. Tinkerbell, Princesses- you know what I'm talking about! I've seen them in the cooler section at the gas station. Everything tastes better coming out of Cinderella's head.... right?!?! <SMH>
So, when I recently had the opportunity to review good2grow beverages with SippaTop character cap, I jumped at the opportunity!
• good2grow™ beverages are made from 100% fruit juice, as well as fruit and veggie blends. Their drinks never contain any added sugar, high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.
• The drinks are sold in three different sizes (4 oz., 6 oz., and 8 oz.), so you can pick the perfect one for your kid.
• good2grow™ drinks feature character tops, which utilize patented spill-proof, no mess SippaTop™ caps that give kids more independence and moms more peace of mind. There are dozens of character options to choose from, plus they're reusable and dishwasher safe!
"Look, Ma! No spills!"
*I LOVE the no-spill caps! This is a lifesaver for a busy family on the go! We literally put the bottle/top to the test and flipped it upside down, shook it, etc., to test it's no mess SippaTop cap guarantee. I'm happy to report, it works just as suggested- no spills!
• All bottles are BPA-free, non-GMO, recyclable, dishwasher safe, and reusable.
• Refill packs of good2grow™ drinks are available in packages of six.
• The Fruit Punch and Apple Juice good2grow™ drinks are 100% juice. The Organic
Apple juice is also USDA certified organic.
• The V-Blend beverages (Strawberry Kiwi and Tropical Fruit Medley) contain at least 22% less sugar than traditional juice blends. They also contain one combined serving of fruits and vegetables, which provides your kids with 100% of their daily vitamin C intake.
• The retail price for a single serve is $2.49 to $2.99. Refill packs range from $2.99 to $3.49.
good2grow™ drinks are available at grocery stores, mass retailers, and drug stores nationwide, including: Kroger, Safeway, H-E-B, BI-LO, Ingles, Meijer, Piggly Wiggly, Wakefern, Food Lion, Hannaford, Raleys, Babies “R” Us, Walmart, Toys “R” Us, Kmart, Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS, RaceTrac, Kwik Trip, 7-11, Sheetz, QT, BP, Cumberland Farms, Wawa, Circle K, and Kangaroo Express. Locally, I was able to locate the single serve bottles in the cafe section of Target. At almost $3.00 for 8oz, I did find the individual pricing to be a bit steep- I would never normally spend that much on just one juice box. However, the character tops are reusable (dishwasher safe is a win, in my book!) and can be used on the six pack refills.
We tried the 100% Apple Juice and Strawberry Kiwi V-Blend. Lil' Miss loved them both and didn't even notice the added veggie boost in the V-Blend.
I really like the fact that good2grow comes in 100% juice and fruit/veggie blends. I'm always looking for ways to get more veggies into my daughter, so this is a great occasional supplemental way to coax my child to consume her daily five (servings of fruits and veggies). No HFCS, artificial colors or added preservatives are an added bonus. Of course, I should note, each 6 oz. serving does contain natural sugars and I do not believe that juice should be the only source of either calories and/or fruits and veggies. Nothing beats the real deal! ;-) Juice is definitely a treat in our household, but these good2grow beverages are at least a healthier option.

Lil' Miss, on the other hand, LOVES the character SippaTops! Even water tastes better if Hello Kitty, Kermit or Tinkerbell are attached! Ha! Those fun, recognizable characters are what really matter to the preschool set.... A fun product to review!
