Minute Maid Mango Aguas Frescas is a mango-flavored, non-carbonated beverage that’s an homage to aguas frescas, that are gentle drinks fashionable in Latin American delicacies comprised of fruit, grain, or herb infusions with water and sugar.
A 16-oz can retails for about $1.49, however I obtained this courtesy of the Coca-Cola Firm.
The Mango Aguas Frescas had a tremendous aroma and smelled like ripe mango. The aroma was fairly sturdy and was instantly obvious upon opening the can. The pale yellow coloration of the beverage did not bring to mind mango, which I often affiliate with a wealthy yellow orange, however that could be as a result of quantity of precise juice within the Mango Aguas Frescas (three %).
There was a strong, contemporary mango taste to the Mango Aguas Frescas that was very juicy and refreshing. It tasted a lot like precise mango that I used to be frankly shocked by the low juice content material.
Sadly, the Mango Aguas Frescas was extraordinarily candy as a result of mixture of mango’s pure sweetness and the sucralose. The sweetness hit me like a truck, and I discovered myself unable to drink past a number of sips. Whereas the sucralose was masked pretty effectively, the telltale bitter aftertaste of synthetic sweetener grew to become obvious on the tail finish of the sip and lingered.
Total, I discovered the Mango Aguas Frescas to be a blended bag. Whereas it had a splendidly juicy aroma and contemporary mango taste, it additionally suffered from extreme sweetness and the pointless addition of the unreal sweetener. I actually suppose the beverage would have fared higher with out the sucralose.
