There are less than two weeks until school starts here in Florida (yes, we go back early!). And with the start of a new school year comes many new challenges for my household including early mornings. I’ve never been a morning person, and neither are my girls. Currently my girls get up at 7:15, but when school starts K will have to catch the school bus at 7:15. I predict a couple of rough weeks to start (for K and me!).
To add to the morning routine challenge, K is a fan of eating dry Cherrios – typically in the car. Not the world’s best breakfast choice, but it is quick and easy. Over the summer, I have been testing new breakfast options for her. Ideally fruit and protein, but K is also the world’s slowest eater. (She took 45 minutes to eat a waffle and half a yogurt this morning.) So I have a conundrum.
Then I met a solution – Frusion.
Frusion is a fruit and yogurt smoothie (kind of like a liquid yogurt). I’ve seen things like this in the store before, but honestly we have never tried them. Now that my daughters have, I think we are hooked.
The new Frusion is C-Charged with 100% of your daily vitamin C, plus 50% of your daily calcium and an excellent source of protein (5g). The big bonus for me is that because it is drinkable, K had it down in less than 5 minutes! Now that’s a breakfast that works for the morning rush.
Other things I like about Frusion is that there is no high fructose corn syrup and no artificial flavors or colors. And it is made with real fruit puree.
Of course, the real test is always the taste. So I asked K to give it a taste test for me, I think this series of pictures says it all…
After seeing how much K liked it, baby girl started begging to “tie, tie.” So she got to give it a taste test as well, and it received a “more, more!” It was a hit with both of my girls.
When K finished her bottle she exclaimed, “Well, that was tasty.” High praise from my five year old.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one whose kiddo takes FOREVER to eat! Because of that, and as parents always being in a rush coordinating everyone’s activities and schedules, it’s hard to find healthy food choices while maintaining the convenience. I’m definitely going to check these out. Luckily my daughter likes anything labeled smoothie, so hopefully these are a hit with her too!
I love yogurt and can’t wait to try this product
The pics are adorable and tell the story…yummy! My grand kids love smoothies nd fruit so this sounds like a winner for them.
Sounds delicious! I think it’s a great mix all the vitamins and nutrients to start the day off healthy!
lots of calcium and protein. those drinks are great. thank you for the post.
I like this drink because it has healthy ingredients such as fruit and yogurt in a smoothie. I like smoothies and so does my family and having these already made is a great time saver in the morning. I bet they taste delicious. I will have to get some.
Never tried this but will now, thanks!
Thanks for the free trial info. These work great for lunches, my kids love drinkable yogurts.
this sounds really good – i know the kids would like it because they love yogurt anyway!
my kids love these!
My daughter is pretty picky, not sure if she’d try this or not. However, I do like that there’s no high fructose corn syrup and no artificial flavors or colors!
These sound so good, and good for you. Definitely enticing with a rebate!
My sisters already like the other flavors in this line, so I ‘ll have to pick these up so we can give them a try!
I’ll have to give it a shot when I have kids!
I have seen this product and it looks kid friendly and healthy.
I think I would even enjoy these! Thanks for sharing the rebate offer.
I’m a big yogurt fan. This looks like it’s great for on the go!
These are so yummy my daughter is addicted to them…and I like them to
Those definetely look like something my picky eaters would love!
Definitely sounds like it is worth a look (and a taste). 🙂 Thanks.
I really wish someone would make these sorts of things for people whose children are lactose intolerant. I don’t always leave enough time in the morning to make something and something premade, say with coconut milk or almond milk would be a lifesaver. These look delicious though.
I’ve always wanted to try frusion
Sounds good! I love that there isn’t any high fructose corn syrup!
Great Review! I’m in need of new ideas for my son who is SO picky in the morning! Thank you!
Oh these look really good and I love that they have 100% of your daily vitamin C!
Great review. These sound and look delicious. Great morning breakfast for kids on the go! I love that there is no high fructose corn syrup and its made with real fruit puree. 🙂
I love drinkable yogurt
i like that these have no high fructose corn syrup. I also wish they would make a non-dairy option!
I have been curious about this product. It looks healthy!
These look nutritious and tasty too.
Love the model!
I enjoy yogurt drinks like this, especially for kids. It’s a quick, tasty way to get some protein and calcium in your body. Great as a healthy snack alternative and no high fructose sugar!
This sounds like a nice morning snack. Thanks for the review!
We haven’t tried this brand but I need to. My grandson loves smoothies, especially Strawberry banana and we like that it’s good for him
I know my youngest would love these, she’s open to try anything and loves dairy products. My oldest, however, has become very picky and probably wouldn’t even give it a try. Love how it’s healthy and quick for those mornings when you feel like you’re never going to get out the door. Even though all that rushing around you know you kiddos have had a beneficial breakfast to start their day.
I WISH my daughter would eat yogurt. She is a carb addict and a picky one. I make a homemade healthy breakfast muffin she loves and when we don’t have that, she will eat certain types of dry cereal.
Great they sound good! Usually i cant get my oldest to have a big breakfast before school he’ll usually just have a piece of fruit and water i’ll have to try this!
My kids would love this, it’s hard to get them to eat first thing in the morning.
On days when we’re on the go, this would really come in handy.
This is something fast, easy and nutritious that I know my kids would enjoy.
sound delicious thanks for the information
Sounds like something new to try…thanks for the info!
This sounds really yummy. I think I’ll check into this.
Looks like a good idea and I will have to check it out. If it is at a store near me then I will have to check the price and get the Facebook offer, thanks!
Looks delicious,if its healthy AND tastes good than it should be a hit with parents &kids alike.
I like this!
Going to see if we have it in our area.
This sounds great to have on days we are running on school morning.
I don’t have children, but this looks absolutely yummy. Makes me want one. Thank you for the review!!!
My problem is getting my 5yo to be full! This would be a great healthy snack option. Will have to try it 🙂
I have used these and their really good my kids like them
My sons love them and it is better the chocolate milk
We have never tried this before but we are always looking for a quick, healthy breakfast for the kids as we shuffle them out the door. Thanks for the review!
