Faison, NC – Muscadine Grapes, the state fruit of North Carolina and a well-kept southern secret, break onto the national scene in a new smoothie, “JUVN8”. Created and produced by Muscadine Time, LLC, a division of Cottle Strawberry Nursery in Faison, NC “JUVN8” is filling a gap in the extremely popular smoothie industry by providing an all-natural, delicious tasting , healthy drink that consumers have been craving.

“We saw an opportunity to offer the public a smoothie based on the muscadine grape which is extremely high in antioxidants. “According to the ORAC value chart, muscadine grapes have a value of 6,800 which is double blueberries” said Ron Cottle, president of Cottle Strawberry Nursery. “We know that today’s consumers are making healthier diet and eating decisions and this smoothie will help fill that desire.”

To meet the demand created in early testing, bottling facilities were built right on the farm where the grapes are grown. “Our bottling line allows us to currently produce up to 15,000 bottles a day with room to increase production as the demand for the product grows.” Said Mr. Cottle.

“JUVN8” is currently available in two flavors, Muscadine Grape/Blueberry and Muscadine Grape/Strawberry. “All of the grapes and berries used to produce “JUVN8” are grown on our farms, giving us the ability to ensure only the highest quality fruit is going into the making of this dynamic smoothie.” “From our farm to your refrigerator, we like to say, Mother Nature created it and we unleashed it!”

“JUVN8” is located in the produce/cold drink section of most grocery stores. More information can be found at: www.juvn8.com
