Trump Family's New Drinks Receive Harsh Reviews: Sollos and Blue Raz Slush Under Fire

Ekhbary News Agency | 2024-05-12

The recent launch of new soft drinks by Barron Trump, son of former U.S. President Donald Trump, and his granddaughter Kai Trump, has been met with overwhelmingly negative reviews. These initial forays into the beverage industry, Sollos and Blue Raz Slush, have drawn sharp criticism for their taste, perceived quality, and pricing, raising questions about the business acumen of the younger Trump generation.

Barron Trump's Sollos: Questionable Flavor and Steep Price

Barron Trump, 20, co-founded Sollos, a pineapple and coconut yerba mate drink. Marketed with the vaguely ominous slogan "It begins where it ends" and described as a "brand built around the Florida lifestyle," Sollos retails at an eye-watering $39.99 for a 12-pack. A reviewer described its taste as akin to "suncream mixed with pineapple juice," a far cry from a refreshing beverage. While the product boasts natural ingredients like organic raw honey and monk-fruit extract, their presence reportedly made no discernible difference to the overall flavor experience.

Kai Trump's Blue Raz Slush: Unsubstantiated Claims and Poor Taste

Kai Trump's offering, Blue Raz Slush, is a collaboration with Accelerator, an existing drinks company. Positioned as an energy drink "inspired by nostalgic blue raspberry slushies and summertime memories," it sells for $24.99 for a 12-pack, slightly more than popular competitors. The company claims "clinically proven benefits," including "sustained energy" and "enhanced focus," alongside accelerated metabolism. However, a crucial detail emerges: the Accelerator website's link to the supposed study supporting these claims leads to an empty page, rendering the benefits unverified. To be fair, the reviewer found the taste "bad" and "chemical," failing to evoke any pleasant summer memories.
