I had a Cherry Berry Chiller for the first time today! It was very delicious and sweet, but not too sweet. It’s a frozen drink, like a slushy, but it’s made with 100% fruit juice. My daughters seemed to thoroughly enjoy it and I don’t feel bad letting them drink it since its sweetened naturally and not filled with added sugar!
