Froose Your Way to Nutritional Peace of Mind

Froose It may strike some people strangely that a children’s beverage is being covered on “Cool Finds for Moms”… because it’s not for Moms. Or is it? Actually, I chose Froose because I view it as a gift for moms. That's right, a gift. Sure, kids love the taste, but for me it offers a convenient and healthy alternative to sugar-laden juice while providing me the gift of peace of mind. As the mom of three juice-guzzling young boys, Froose has lessened the nutrition strife in my home. The kids love the taste (think freshly picked fruit!) and given it’s organic, sweetened with brown rice syrup (a complex carbohydrate… so “no sugar high”) and it’s a “whole food beverage”, it has all the natural goodness and nutrition of an actual piece of fruit.

I enjoy the fact that I no longer need to be on drink patrol and "help yourself" has become a wonderful addition to my Mom vocabulary. Froose comes in three flavors: Perfect Pear, Playful Peach and Cheerful Cherry. In our house it’s a close contest, but Cherry seems to be the winner today.
