I count myself quite picky when it comes to buying fruit juices and smoothies. From a long line of juice bars and café’s I’ve been going through, I still haven’t found the best place to buy a fresh fruit juice. I tend to avoid over-dosing on the caffeine as much as possible nowadays and prefer a much more natural pick-me-up. DCM juices is a café slash juice bar that I’ve gone past many times but never given a chance. This time I ordered a mango, apple, banana concoction and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, I didn’t get it this time. The service was average and speedy, and the smoothie was whipped out in two minutes. The worst thing a smoothie can be(in my opinion) is warm. This one wasn’t. Tick. The second worst thing a smoothie can be is sugar-loaded. This one was. I’m pretty sure they use apple concentrate in their juices because this was a whopping sugar overload, where all I could taste was this sickly sweet apple concentrate. For a small juice, the $ 4.50 was a pretty big serving. It was a shame I didn’t want to finish it.
