A Review of Carnation Breakfast Essentials Classic French Vanilla: Ready to Drink

I am a long time fan of Carnation brand instant breakfast mixes. I adored these mixes in my youth. So, when I came across a four pack of Carnation Breakfast Essentials Classic French Vanilla bottles, ready to drink and perfect for those on the go early morning moments, I was thrilled! I decided to purchase these, try them and write a product review all about my personal experience with them. Here is what I discovered!

A four pack of Carnation Breakfast Essentials Classic French Vanilla bottles costs around six dollars and fifty cents. Yes, these are a bit pricey, I admit. Still, I have fond memories of this brand and love so many Carnation brand food products, I just had to try these. I love french vanilla flavors and I have a dear relative that does, also. That made trying this nutritional breakfast drink important for me. I discovered that this drink is rich in calcium and so many vitamins. These are also cholesterol free. That was mind blowing! This beverage is low in saturated fat, too. Wow! I could not wait to taste these!

These are well sealed and I appreciated that fact, for obvious food safety reasons. I shook up a bottle and when I tasted this ready made breakfast drink, I liked it. I am very fond of vanilla flavors and this beverage did please the french vanilla lover in me. It is rich, creamy, perfectly sweet and so tasty. This one makes my morning go down well, I must say. I like to drink this drink as an early morning meal. I have a relative who puts this drink on her cereal. She loves it that way. She was delighted with this product and gives it a thumbs up. I agree. I rate Carnation Breakfast Essentials Classic French Vanilla four stars out of five stars. I will be buying this one again. It is very good, smooth and healthy.

One bottle has 250 calories. 50 of those calories come from fat. It has 5 grams of total fat, only 1.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 mg's of cholesterol, yay, 180 mg's of sodium, 330 mg's of potassium, 34 grams of total carbs, 0 grams of dietary fiber, 31 grams of sugars and 14 grams of protein. This breakfast drink has lots of Vitamins A, B6, C, E, K, iron, calcium, riboflavin, niacin, thiamin, folic acid, phosphorus, zinc and many other minerals in it. That is quite an impressive list. Like a liquid vitamin in a bottle. I like that! You must refrigerate these after opening and they are best when served cold.

I enjoyed trying Carnation Breakfast Essentials Classic French Vanilla drinks and writing this product review about them. Even though I like chocolate, I liked this french vanilla flavor better than the chocolate version of this product. Just my opinion. These are very good and worth the money, in my book. They are ready with energy to provide, when you are ready. This one is a winner!
