XTOPIA Berries Detox Juice Powder, Blueberries, Acai Berry, Raspberry, L-carnitine, Marine Collagen and More. Superfood. Organic, Antioxidant-Rich, Keto Friendly. Bag of 25 Sticks 3.5g Each

I wanted to try this detox juice to help and hopefully add more positives and counteract the negatives in my diet. You get 25 packets in this bag, which makes each packet a little under $1.50, an acceptable price.When I first opened the bag, my first issue is that the packets open top down to the side. This makes it harder to tap out the contents as compared to if the packets open sideways and top off. I eventually got used to it though. Some other things to note is that the powder doesn't fully dissolve with the liquid swirl method (where you just swirl the liquid in the glass but not use a spoon to do it). This also doesn't bother me because I mix it in a smoothie and it all gets blended in. Another thing is that the color is different than the one in the packaging, and if mixed with milk, it gives that greenish foam things on top.The taste is fruity tea-ish, and with milk almost green-tea-ish. My palate isn't too particular so I can't describe it well. It isn't awful but I won't enjoy drinking it as is. It is best with a smoothie. I mix it with water/milk, powder, blueberries, oatmeal and sugar. Makes for a good breakfast smoothie!I've continued to mix this with my daily smoothie and noticed more soft numbers 2s in my life so I feel like it works! Overall happy with the product, I just wish it tastes better on its own and can stand alone. This is so I can still drink it even if I skip my breakfast smoothie.

Berries Detox Juice Powder: $34.99 for a 25-count bag of sachetsI am a huge fan of Summer berries. I live in a state where we have access to all of the best local berry varieties. Whether it's strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, Tay berries, or just about any other kind of berry you can think of, I love it! Unfortunately though, berry season is pretty short. So that means that I have to find other ways to get my berry based antioxidants during the cold season. When I saw these detox juice powder packets, they looked like a good option for that.*What I liked*:This is a nice quality retail package. It has all of the nutrition information clearly laid out on the back (important for something that isn't necessarily vetted or approved by the FDA, as indicated on this package).The packets are pretty easy to make. Sometimes powders like this clump up and are difficult to mix together with water. That's not the case here.Apart from being overly sweet, the flavor is actually not too bad. For something labeled as detox I was expecting it to be a harsh flavor but that isn't the case here.*What I didn't like*:The first noticeable negative to these packets is the smell when you mix it up. Well the taste is good, the smell… off-putting. I'd stop just short of calling it bad, but it just isn't right for a berry flavored drink.The next thing I'll mention is the concept of this being a detox drink. Traditionally, as I understand them, a detox drink is something you would take in lieu of eating other foods to help cleanse your system. I don't see any kind of indication of these packets doing such a thing. Well they may be a good source of antioxidants, I don't really see that as a "detox.”Last thing I’ll mention is the cost. At $35 for 25 sachets (at the time of review) you’re looking at about $1.40 per serving. That's a pretty high cost for what is essentially a daily supplement.*The Bottom Line:*At the end of the day, I just don't think that these juice packets are for me. I'm not interested in the concept of a detox (even though, as I mentioned before, I don't think that they would accomplish what I know a detox as). And while I like berries and appreciate the antioxidants that they carry with them, I think they're better and less expensive ways to get them into your diet than this. As such, and considering the poor value proposition, my final score here will be three stars out of five. I wouldn't order these over again knowing what I know now.

I’ve now tried this in both water and smoothies. In water it tastes like a blueberry drink with a slightly earthy aftertaste- almost like matcha. That aftertaste isn’t present when blended in smoothies, it just adds a blueberry flavoring.I was concerned about it being mislabeled as vegan when it also is labeled as having collagen, so I contacted the company and they assured me it was all plant based and was cruelty free and vegan 😅 I wish they would change the labeling so it didn’t seem so contradictory.I could see this being great for sport drink lovers, for others like me they would need to drink it in a smoothie for it to taste best.

Decent flavor for a detox. Works fast and is easy to take

I'm really not sure why this is considered a detox. It is dried, ground juice powder, and it's very low in taste. I suppose it may help make smoothies or the like feel a little fruitier, but as a drink mix itself, it fails miserably. Not only low in taste, but it is extremely difficult to mix. Shaking, stirring, and mixing just make clumps.Overall, I would not recommend this powder. Low in taste, hard to mix, too expensive.
