Appy Food and Drinks's upcoming Nickelodeon Juice Drink Pouches range will be the first UK range of kids' juice drinks to use Stevia instead of sugar, and the first UK Juice range to use Nickelodeon characters on the packaging. Initially, three flavours will be available to purchase: "SpongeBob SquarePants" (Orange & Pineapple), "Dora the Explorer" (Tropical Vitamin Boost) and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (Apple & Blackcurrant). Further flavours to be revealed later in the year. Low in fat, saturated fat, salt and sugar, the range is a healthier option than many other juices currently on the market. The Juice pouches also contain no artificial preservatives and are the first kids drink to use the recently acclaimed natural sweetener Stevia – a zero calorie ingredient that tastes like sugar, whilst keeping our drink all green on the new incoming drinks traffic light system.
Appy will also be running a competition, with prizes to be won, every week; Prizes will include a range of goodies including: teddy bears, DVDs, stickers, iPods, iPads, passes to Nickelodeon Land for a family of four, and a grand prize of being taken on a cruise holiday on a Nickelodeon cruise line. To enter the competition entrants must scan the props on the back of the juice packages* and use them on the Appy Drinks App to customise their own pictures, and then share them via Twitter or Facebook. T&Cs will apply:
