Over the past few years, "Superfoods" such as select berries and other fruits, have been making headlines due to the high level of nutrients, antioxidants, and assorted other health benefits they reportedly deliver. Though it was difficult to source them from anywhere but health food stores or possibly your local smoothie / juice bar, they are readily becoming more available in mainstream North American products. Anheuser-Busch has just added Goji, a small, red berry found in a remote area of Tibet, to their existing '180 Energy Drink' line. The berry is believed to increase energy and stimulate rejuvenation, and apparently contains one of the highest antioxidant levels of any fruit recorded. According to AB, "180 Red with Goji" contains carbonated water; sucrose; Goji berry juice; acerola juice; guarana for natural caffeine; vitamins B-6, B-12 and C; and lychee natural flavor.
Late last year, the company also released "180 Blue" which is made from the super-berry Açai, found in the Amazonian jungles of Brazil.

I heard about this new drink!! I began drinking authentic Himalayan Goji a year ago, I new the product was huge. Now, since Busch is attempting to create a goji drink, I know that how huge this is. Please be aware that you should consume a cold-filled process juice in a pharmaceutical grade bottle to obtain the maximum amount of nutrients and only one company has the berry with all the benefits, happy that this large company is trying to make a buck thought.
