A review of Jordan’s Skinny Mixes Limited Edition USA Trio / America’s Collection, including the flavors Sweet Cream, Rocket Pop, and Fruit Punch.
All are roughly the same in sweetness, falling around mildly sweet, especially compared to Jordan’s Skinny Syrups’ other flavors. So if you want a sweet syrup that still has flavor in your drink or whatever you’re making, I’d look at any of their other flavors. Overall, these aren’t terrible variations, though I’d avoid the Sweet Cream and Rocket Pop and stick with their Fruit Punch if I had to choose between the three.
Sweet Cream
This smells pretty strong and sweet. Interestingly, it smells like some sort of artificial sweet cream, not so much milky per se, if you were wondering. Taste-wise, it’s, in a way, a sugar- or sweetener-based artificial cream. I say ‘artificial,’ but it’s not horrible; it just feels like a cream-flavoring concentrate or extract, if that makes sense. It’s definitely not as creamy tasting as, say, a cream soda. In fact, when I added it to soda, there is a noticeable, almost odd, artificial cream that doesn’t feel as natural as regular cream soda. I don’t think I’d get this again.
Rocket Pop
First, I love the color of this, well, now that I think about it, it looks like Windex. Anyway, I love the blue, and it definitely doesn’t taste like window cleaner, haha!
First, it smells like a mild-to-moderate, smooth, fruity syrup. Nothing explicit, more so, some combination of something. The taste is very light; in fact, I would advise using several pumps for anything you’re adding. I don’t think it’s explicitly rocket pop; it tastes like it smells, a light, smooth combination of mild fruits. If you blindfolded me, I honestly wouldn’t be able to guess the flavors. Personally, this isn’t my favorite; I won’t be getting this one again. It’s simply not sweet enough, and the flavors aren’t very pronounced. In a way, rocket pop is usually in popsicle form — it’s generally icy, watery, and light-tasting, so in a way, this flavor nails that part.
Fruit Punch
Smells like your typical fruit punch you’d find at a party, and in terms of flavor, it’s just that. Sweet, generic, and a fairly punchy punch-bowl fruitiness. But then, since it’s already perfect as a syrup, it became too diluted when added to water! With that, I’d suggest at least several pumps. Lastly, out of the three, this tasted the most authetic and accurate to its advertised flavor.
