Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company announced today it will begin shipping bottles of its limited edition Pumpkin Apple Spice and Orange Cranberry juices to grocers this week. What makes these new flavors so interesting is that magazine editors from leading health, nutrition and women’s publications played a key role in selecting them for production. This August in New York City, Natalie’s conducted taste tests with a panel of editors to identify the best juice blend to market this fall. Overwhelmingly, the editors selected Natalie’s Pumpkin Apple Spice as their juice of choice. Other flavors sampled included: Orange Cranberry and Black Cherry Limeade. The second place choice, Orange Cranberry, received such good reviews it was selected for production as well.
“Who better to help us to choose a new fall flavor than this group of editors?” said Natalie’s Director of Marketing, Natalie Sexton, who organized the taste test. “They have their finger on the pulse of what consumers enjoy – and they also have a palate for good taste. We were very excited to collaborate with them to produce the winning blend.”
Clean label, Florida based, Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company produces minimally processed, gluten free and gourmet pasteurized juices for grocers in 34 states and 22 countries globally. Pumpkin Apple Spice and Orange Cranberry will be available throughout the fall at fine grocers including: Morton Williams, Foodtown, Eataly, Gourmet Garage, McCaffrey’s and Di Bruno Brothers.
“Our new, handcrafted and locally sourced Pumpkin Apple Spice juice is rich in amino acids, potassium, fiber and antioxidants,” says Marygrace Sexton, the founder and CEO of Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company. “It’s just an added bonus that pumpkin supports good vision, the immune system and naturally balances the body’s electrolytes.”
Natalie’s Pumpkin Apple Spice juice contains only three ingredients: American pumpkins, apples, pears and spices. Orange Cranberry contains only two ingredients: Florida oranges and American cranberries. The juices contain no preservatives, no artificial ingredients and no added sugars. Both are non-GMO, locally sourced and freshly handcrafted in small batches.
