Wasted on Children!

I first tried Frumoo at the BBC Good Food show. I'm not a fan of milkshakes (way too sweet for me) so was a bit dubious, but instantly converted!
They are a blend of fruit and fresh milk and come in a lightweight plastic pouch, with a re-sealable lid, which is excellent, as I have had one too many opened carton of juice tip over in my handbag.

Everything is sourced from British Farms and the flavours are great - Raspberry, Pear & Apple in the red pouch and Blackcurrant Plum & Apple in the purple pouch.

Whilst the packaging is really nice and bright, it doesn't shout "Kid's Drink" in the way some others do (yes, Fruit Shoot, I am looking at you) and I'd be perfectly happy to buy it for myself.

The drink itself is very fruity, but not too sharp; it's a great thirst quencher, straight from the fridge and pretty filling too.
The instructions say you can freeze it, so we made ice lollies (excellent) and a sort-of-sorbet.

Frumoo Sorbet/Ice Cream
Pour the Frumoo into a plastic container and put in the freezer
Set an alarm for hourly intervals
Each time the alarm goes off, get a fork and stir the Frumoo to break up the big ice crystals
Repeat 3-4 times, until it's frozen, but scoop-able
Eat!
