Nite is an alcopop drink (flavored alcoholic beverage) available at your friendly neighborhood hypermarket. It contains 4 different flavors in a nicely done package which features a strap for easy carrying. It’s made with “fruit wine” which probably means some fermentation occured at some point of the manufacturing process. The bottles weigh in at the standard 5% alcohol and I really like the presentation of the nite Special Pack4.
Strawberry Delight
This tastes like artificially flavored strawberries. I have been trying
to open this for a long time (don’t ask) so the carbonation is minimal.
It’s still good though…the strawberry taste is recognizably
synthetic, but it’s not cloying. The lack of carbonation makes it easy
to down it in a single swig. That’s a Good Thing (TM). π
Eden Apple
One word – excessively acidic. Okay, that’s two words, but nite
seriously needs to work on the flavor composition of this one. The
acidity level is close to white wine (at least to my untrained palate)
and white wine is the only type of alcohol I turn down coz it gives me gastric problems. This one made my ulcers act up…
Lemon Fizz
It tastes like a reasonable approximation of lemonade so that gets the
thumbs up from me. The wonders of the modern synthetic flavor industry!
π It’s the plainest one from the series, both packaging and taste
wise, but it works anyway. It’s good! Nothing fancy, just a lemonade
flavored alcopop…and it’s not acidic, despite being a lemon based
drink. It tastes remarkably similar to Two Dogs.
Passionate Orange
The name sounds appealing enough but I’ve never really liked orange
flavored drinks. It somehow never tastes like REAL orange juice and we
all know what real OJ tastes like so that’s a high bar if there was
one. nite Passionate Orange superseded my (admittedly low) expectations
and came up with the closest approximation to orange I’ve ever had.
Nite: Make The Best of Yours!
