Go Appetít savory fruit and vegetable beverages are a new and delicious take on the pre-packaged smoothie. Available in three flavors (Gazpacho, Mango Melange and Carrot Bisque), the summer soups are made with premium fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices. There's no artificial preservatives, colors or added sugar, which helps keep each eight-ounce single serving bottle under 150 calories.
Created by two entrepreneurial single mothers who wanted better tasting and better-for-you options for eating on-the-go, Go Appetít beverages were inspired by the flavors, nutrition, vitamins and antioxidants of Mediterranean cuisine. Dedicated to making a healthful liquid snacks, Go Appetít uses cutting edge technology in place of preservatives for a natural nine-month shelf life and a product that doesn't need to be refrigerated before opening. Go Appetít beverages are available at Whole Foods for about $3 each.

ZICO brings it to you first. Coconut water is better than regular water because it has five essential electrolytes, more potassium than a banana, low acidity, no fat, no sugar added, and no cholesterol-- and it's yummy.
