This is a compensated review by BlogHer and V8.
- chocolate & peanut butter anything
- broccoli & cheese
- french fries & ranch dressing
- ham & pineapple
- meatloaf & ketchup
On the other hand, there are flavors that just do not work together. Such as:
- orange juice & mint (don't believe me? go brush your teeth and then try to down a glass of OJ. *shudder*)
- lime gelatin & bacon bits (I've seen it done...it ain't pretty)
- chocolate ice cream & lemonade
- and I know I'm in the minority here, but, potato salad & eggs (yuck Yuck YUCK)
- anything with brussel sprouts--strike that, brussel sprouts are revolting all on their own
I found the vegetable taste to be subtle, and secondary to the juice flavor, but it was definitely there. It reminds me of drinking V8's regular vegetable juice (which I love) but only at first, and then the fruit juices take over.
There are several flavor combos to try out including Passionfruit Tangerine, Cranberry Blackberry (my favorite), Strawberry Banana, Pomegranate Blueberry, and others. And for those who are watching their sugar intake, there are also several Light varieties.
My kids and hubby all really liked the juice--hubby said he liked knowing that it was healthy while still being tasty, and I like that the kids can get a full serving of veggies without even knowing it!

Cranberry Blackberry and Pomegranate Blueberry both sound super yummy!
I'd love to try the acai berry flavor!
I'd like to try passionfruit tangerine. The blackberry pomegranate sounds good too though.
Cranberry Blackberry is good. Definitely get a little taste of veggies but not enough to keep kids from drinking this.
I love V-8 Fusion!!! My favorite is the pomegranate blueberry. I’m excited to try the cranberry blackberry!
I'd love to try the blueberry pomagranite!

I haven't tried any before.I'll admit,I have been skeptical,fruit and veggetabe combination.The one that sound good to me,is the pomegrate and blueberry combination!

I would love to try the Peach Mango…. it sounds wonderful!
I had a conversation with my brother just yesterday that I could not drink V8 juice.. I've tried many times, I just can't do it! I had no idea they came out with all these fruity flavors! I would like to try the Strawberry Banana one! :) I bet I'd like the fruity ones. :)
I liked the Pomegranate Blueberry. It has a great flavor but a little sweeter than what I like but still yummy. I have not tried the Strawberry Banana, but would like to. I love the original V-8 so I thought it was great when they came out with the Fusion line.
The Pomegranate Blueberry sounds yummy and full of antioxidants. I'll have to check it out!
I like the Strawberry and Banana one. When making smoothies,we us frozen bananas, and frozen strawberries along with the Strawberry and Banana V8 Fusion.This is a great way to keep it wholesome and full of the good stuff we intend our smoothies to be!!!!
I would love to try the promegranate blueberry. It sounds good. I love regular V-8 so this is probably good.
I haven't tried the fusion, but I have tried the smoothie flavors, which are good by themselves or to mix in with smoothies!
I have not tried V-8 fushion but would love to try the strawberry bannana those are my fav flavors
I love V8 Fusion!! I especially like the pomegranate/blueberry one.
Wow! Those juices look vey yummy, but I have to find juices that don't have apple/acid in them.
I haven't seen these yet, but I just printed a coupon and will pick up any blend with pomegranate in it! LOVE ME some pom-anything!
Thanks Amie!!!
peach mango sounds delicious!

love v-8 fusion and am excited totry the new flavor
As with all juices, I love the banana strawberry and the peach Mango! But I thought the V8's were just a bit too sweet. I am a purist when it comes to real sugar, but they could cut back on the sugars and still have a really great product! I am anxious to try the Pomegranate! Thanks Amie!
Pomegranate Blueberry sounds good! And lots of antioxidants!!
The strawberry and banana sounds yummy!

I've never tried V-8 Fusion, but I think the Strawberry-Banana would be my favorite!

I love V-8 Fusion! It is one drink that my hubby with SOOOO many allergies can drink. THe mango peach is my favorite, but they all are yummy!
mammatorrie@gmail.com
I’ve never tried any fusions because I never liked straight V8. But I’m making it an official 2010 resolution to try it! and I’d love to try all of them!
I've had V8 before, but I don't think I've ever had the fusion. I think I would like the Strawberry banana, only because I'm not sure what Acai mixed berry is...
Blueberry Pomagranate is my favorite. So yummy!
Thank you for the generous giveaway. Pomegranite Blueberry. They all sound yummy. Healty too? Cmon? Perfect for my immune system!
lsatlesasteeledesignsdotcom
Definitely going to try the pomegranate one!
I have only tried the strawberry banana, which is wonderful!
Bring on the Acai Mixed Berry I would love to have some and I will put it on my next grocery list

I have only tried a few, but my favorite is def. strawberry banana. I am really in the mood for a smoothie.
seanm1999@hotmail.com
No, the meatloaf and ketchup is not only you!
I will admit that I have never tried the V8 fusion juices, but after your rave review, I'll definitely give it a go. The blue pomegranate sounds the most appealing to me.
Passionfruit-tangerine is definitely my fav!
btw...chocolate and citrus is one of the best combos :)
Tropical orange :)
The Light Peach Mango looks yummy!
judyman715(at)aim(dot)com
I tried one a few months back and can't remember the flavor but the Passionfruit Tangerine, Cran-Blackberry, Straw-Banana, sound really good! I would try the Pomegranate Blueberry because I am always willing to try anything once, but as you don't care for anything Cherry flavored, I don't care for anything Blueberry. But oddly I only like them in blueberry muffins yet can't seem to get past their taste any other time. As soon as I get a chance I will go try some more! I love me some juice, since I am getting tired of water....
purplbtrfly1 at cox dot net
Pomegranate Blueberry is my absolute favorite. I drink it daily to help me choke down all the medicine I am on, but I would love to try the Cranberry Blackberry. I love have rich in taste and texture the V8 V Fusion is. Bye Bye Juicy Juicy.
A little Tweet love for V8 V Fusion

OOOOOOHHHHHHHH, I'm excited to try the Pomegranite/blueberry. I love anything Pom!
B
Well, it's complicated...I LOVE cranberry, pomegranate, passionfruit & blackberry....now that would be a combination !!!! Don't really care for blueberry. Trust me I'm not a picky person generally, I will eat almost everything except animal organs, snake, etc. Anyway, I haven't had passionfruit lately so that's the one I will pick. Hard choices !!!
Can't wait to try the Peach Mango flavor -- sounds yummy!

Oh the Pom/Blue is a no-brainer, but my boys (not experimental eaters) actually picked out the STRAWBERRY BANANA for themselves and downed it in nothing flat! I'm just ecstatic that i can get some of those extra nutrientsin that don't come in pizza!
My favorite is definitely the Peach Mango!
My kids love strawberry banana!
I would love to try recipes using these - especially strawberry banana in a dessert!
I like the strawberry-banana, but am looking forward to trying the cranberry-blackberry new flavor.

My kids are crazy about the V8 fusion. We tried the Strawberry/Banana last week. They like freezing it on popsickle sticks in the summer. Their favorite is jello. So I used the gelatin packs and made jello from the V-Fusion Cranberry Blackberry juice. I'm thinking about putting frozen fruit in it next time. Try it! They will want it forever. :)

I really wish all V8 products came in a condensed form, to which you could just add water. That's how I buy most of my fruit juice. Would it not work with the vegetable ingredients?

I'd love to try the Blueberry Pomegrante!
We just recently tried the cranberry blackberry - it was the first time we've tried V-8 fusion & I didn't even realize it was a new flavor. My son LOVES it.
My whole family loves V8 Fusion. I adore Tropical Orange and am excited about tasting Strawberry Banana. Sounds delish!
My favorite is the tropical orange, but they don't make it in light, so we tend to get my boyfriend's favorite which is the peach mango.
I cannot wait to try Cranberry Blackberry!
We have not tried any of them yet, but I think the Strawberry Banana would be a hit with my 9 grandkids and me.

Cranberry Blackberry sounds amazing.
My daughter is obsessed with the Tropical Orange! She drinks it every single day and we always have extra bottles in the pantry.
I never let her drink any juice except this and juice we squeeze ourselves. Can't wait to try the Cranberry Blackberry!
Our favorite flavor is the Strawberry Banana. I haven't tried the Acai yet, but I'm going to keep my eye open for it, as I'd really like to try it for myself.
Yum strawberry banana
