Firefly Tonic Drinks

Firefly Tonic Drinks
Natural Healthy Energy
Life's short, and to get the most out of it, we need energy. Lots of it. But we want to stay healthy too.
Firefly tonics contain natural energising ingredients, in a delicious, healthy drink.
They work with herbal experts to find natural formulas that work - right now.
Firefly say NO to sugar and artificial ingredients. Fundamental.
And the result: Firefly Tonics. Healthy drinks that give you natural energy - fast!

Firefly Tonics are available in 40 countries which is pretty amazing as they are a relatively small company.

Each drink is in a 330ml glass bottle, the bottle is a very smooth shape and is covered completely with a plastic coloured wrapper. I found the tops quite hard to initially open as they are quite slim and you need a firm grip.
All Firefly tonics are still fruit juices with added herbal extracts, they can be consumed at any time of day. All Firefly tonics are best consumed cold.

I tried the following Firefly Tonic flavours: Wake Up, Detox, Recharge and Sharpen Up ... and all were gorgeous :)

(Red) Wake up is flavoured with Peach and Green Tea, the drink actually contains Peaches, red grapes, white grapes, green tea, mate and kola. It was smooth with a little after kick of peach. Containing only 106 calories per bottle, one bottle was enough to refresh me and it did indeed wake me up a little.

(Orange) Detox is flavoured with Lemon, Lime and Ginger, the drink also contains nettles and burdock to help clear your head. The lemon and lime give the drink a zesty kick followed by a punch of ginger. It was tasty and although I was a bit dubious about drinking nettles ... I couldn't taste them one bit (even though I don't know what they taste like in the first place). 113 calories per bottle.

(Silver) Recharge is a blend of Pomegranate, Lime and Elderflower. Extra ingredients include kola nut and chilli. I must admit that this blend was my favourite, it was smooth and refreshing but had a slight fiery aftertaste that was very pleasant. 98 calories per bottle.

(Green) Sharpen Up contains Grapefruit and Passionfruit. This flavour was my least favourite as I am not a big fan of grapefruit and it is quite punchy with the sharpness of grapefruit. However it is refreshing and clears your pallet causing your to literally 'sharpen up'. 110 calories per bottle.

I was very impressed with Firefly Tonic Drinks, the design of the bottles are striking, the flavours are refreshing and ingredients healthy. Each bottle retails are between £1.50 and £2.00 a bottle, which for the ingredients and healthy properties this is quite a reasonable price.
My rating: 8/10
