Manufacturer's Brand Overview: [Edit]
Founded in 2001 by Lance Collins and based in Englewood, NJ, FUZE is the pioneer in the "Smart Age" beverage category. FUZE is currently available in 18 different flavors, over four different platforms, all infuzed with great taste and essential vitamins. The four platforms are Refresh, Slenderize, Teas, and Vitalize. All FUZE beverages are fortified with 100% of the daily requirements for the vitamins and minerals listed on each label.

Diet Green Tea (Orange Ginger Green Tea)
Category: Tea: Sweetened; Packaging: 18 fl oz (532 ml) glass

BevNET Review:
The latest addition to the FUZE lineup is Diet Green Tea, which also features orange and ginger flavors. The flavor is good, but has a sweetener aftertaste to it. The orange and ginger flavors help mask this, but aren't strong enough to hide it completely. Overall, it's a pleasant and refreshing flavor. The added benefit of having antioxidant capacity equal to 3 servings of vegetables makes this no calorie, no carb beverage worth a shot.

Tangerine Grapefruit - Slenderize
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
For its category (that class of very-low calorie, very-low carbohydrate drinks that come packed with �good for you� ingredients) this isn�t bad stuff. Sure, you can�t taste much of either tangerine or grapefruit in the mix, but the blend is still fairly crisp and smooth. It isn�t overly sweet and could be the kind of thing you�d down pretty easily if you wanted something flavored and light to drink, and the wide mouth twist-off opening really helps it flow. The 18-oz Fuze bottle doesn�t let you see its orange-tinged contents, which is probably for the best, as it looks a lot like bug juice, but all in all, it�s not the worst high-Chromium, high L-Carnitine, high Citrimax, high Vitamin C product out on the market. Of course, we wouldn�t want to try the worst, either.

Orange Mango - focus
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Orange and mango, two great tastes that go great together. Well at least they do in Orange Mango Focus, a new addition to the Fuze line-up. The mango does a nice job of smoothing out the orange. The beverage has thick mouthfeel and honestly tastes like 100% juice. We absolutely love this drink.

Strawberry Guava - Refresh
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Strawberry Guava is a new addition to Fuze's Healthy Infuzions line. The same flavor had already been available in the company's low-carb Slenderize line. This product is very sweet, with very little tartness/sourness to balance the flavor. As usual, the packaging is brilliant but you'll have to be sweet-tooth to really enjoy this flavor.

No Carb Diet Pomegranate White Tea
Category: Tea: Sweetened; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
FUZE Diet White Tea with Pomegranate flavor is a refreshing, well-executed beverage. It�s ace-k/sucralose sweetener blend combines nicely with the pomegranate and white tea. The flavor is mild with a sweet finish. The drink definitely captures the flavor of pomegranate and the delicate taste of white tea. While this isn't a beverage for tea purists, it's definitely a refreshing mainstream zero-carb/tea hybrid. We're not sure what the market potential is for a no-carb pomegranate/white tea, but this beverage certainly will give consumers who do try it reason to come back.

Orange Blossom White Tea
Category: Tea: Sweetened; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
FUZE is the latest company to create a beverage with one of today's most popular ingredients: white tea. While many people are skeptical of the quality (as well as the marketability) of such products, FUZE's White Tea definitely has potential. Aside from the fact that it uses a good blend of ingredients, the product actually tastes quite good. However, this is not a product for those of you looking for strong tea flavor. Using white tea solids and white tea extract definitely does not yield a flavor that is as strong as real brewed tea -- but it does keep the costs reasonable. The result is a product that has a good balance of white tea flavor and the sweet flavors of honey and orange & ginger flavors and is sweetened with crystalline fructose. Overall, a smooth, relaxing beverage that is a nice timely addition to the FUZE line -- and it will undoubtedly do well if the white tea craze continues.

Mojo Mango - Energize
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz

BevNET Review:
Mojo Mango (which is part of the Energize line) is a an orange mango flavored juice beverage that has been enhanced with ginseng, guarana, vitamin C, vitamin B3, and vitamin B12. The result? A well balanced product that has a very refreshing taste that's a bit more "adult" than some of the other orange mango flavors on the market today. In addition, the lack of high fructose corn syrup definitely makes a big difference -- overall, this is a fine quality product that we would definitely consume again and again.

Blackberry Grape - Energize
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz

BevNET Review:
Blackberry Grape Energize is some good stuff. If you aren't drawn in by the pear and blackberry flavors alone, you'll definitely be drawn in by the smooth consistency and clean finish to this product. Either way, our panel found this product to have a very nice balance between the fruit flavors. Also, FUZE has gone through great lengths to make this product the highest quality that it can be by using cyrstalline fructose (on the back of the label, you'll notice the "HFCS" icon with the line through it) and they've added several vitamins and herbal ingredients to further improve the benefits of this product.

Exotic Punch - Energize
Category: Other; Packaging: [Submit]

BevNET Review:
Exotic Punch is FUZE's take on your traditional fruit punch. Of course this means that it does not have high fructose corn sryup and it has plenty of good stuff added into it. Aside from the 11% fruit juice (orange, aronia, pineapple), this product has ginseng, guarana, and several B vitamins to help give something back to your body while you enjoy the sweet fruit flavor. The taste is good but the finish is slightly off. Specifically, it just has a slightly herbal taste to it -- but it's not something that would keep us from trying this product. Overall, it's a good product that is definitely a better choice than some of their competition but the finish could use a little improvement.

LemonAID
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz

BevNET Review:
LemonAID is a nice "classic lemonade" with some not-so-classic ingredients. Specifically, this product has a blend of fructose crystals and sucralose which results in a lighter profile and fewer carbs and calories. This is a great flavor to do this with as the sharp citrus flavor nicely hides the user of the artificial sweetener. Overall, we like this product a lot -- nice bright packaging with a great refreshing taste.

Banana Colada - Refresh
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Banana Colada Fuze has a flavor that is both creamy and smooth and preserves a bit of that classic tropical flavor that you'd expect to find in a smoothie bar. Specifically, the flavors of the milk and banana puree combine quite nicely with the apple juice, sugar/crystalline fructose, and natural flavors. The slightly sweet flavor has several different fruit accents to it (we like the coconut the best) and kept us coming back for more.

Mixed Berry - Refresh
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Mixed Berrry Fuze has a very nice and creamy fruit flavor that we find extremely refreshing. Made with a base of fruit juice, skim milk, water, and other natural flavors, this product starts out with all the right ingredients to make a winner. In addition, it's flavored with crystalline fructose, which gives it a much more natural sweetness than if it used high fructose corn syrup. Overall, we really like this product.

Peach Mango - Refresh
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Peach Mango Refresh has a very smooth flavor that we are sure you will enjoy. The combination of the skim milk with the peach, apple, and mango flavors creates a truly delightful fruit flavor that is sure to satisfy even the most picky palate. Overall, this beverage is extremely flavorful and very clean.

Cranberry-Raspberry - Slenderize
Category: Other; Packaging: 18 fl oz glass

BevNET Review:
Fuze Cranberry-Raspberry Slenderize is a refreshing low calorie beverage that has a minimal level of carbs and calories. It features plum, raspberry, and cranberry juices and is sweetened with Ace-K and Sucralose. In addition, it features Citramax, L-Carnitine, and Chromium C to further help those who are dieting. The resulting taste is noticeably a diet product, but still tastes quite natural. Overall, we like it and definitely recommend it to those who are looking for low cal/low carb products.
