Booster Juice Black Out Mixr Review
The Black Out Mixr feels like Booster Juice wanted to make something playful, refreshing, and a little lighter than their usual smoothies. It pours out a striking pitch-black color, thanks to the activated charcoal, and immediately catches your eye. Unlike the Eclipse Smoothie, which is thicker, this one is closer to a slushie — lighter, frostier, and quicker to sip.
Flavor: The first thing you notice is the tropical hit of mango and pineapple. They’re juicy, sweet, and bright, like a vacation in a cup. Then, almost right away, the blueberries come through to deepen the flavor and keep it from being too sugary. The lime ties it all together — not overwhelming, just a squeeze of tartness that gives it an edge and keeps it refreshing.
Balance & Sweetness: This one leans tart-sweet in a way that’s addictive. It’s less creamy than the Eclipse, so the flavors feel sharper and brighter. If you’re not into overly sweet drinks, this is the better choice — it has personality without being heavy.
Texture: The icy texture makes it super refreshing. It’s closer to a frozen slush than a smoothie, so it’s lighter on the stomach. The charcoal doesn’t change anything about the mouthfeel, but it does give the drink a novelty factor that makes every sip feel more fun.
Portion & Filling: Because it’s icy and less dense, a medium is the sweet spot. It’s not super filling like the Eclipse, so it’s more of a “grab-and-go treat” than a meal replacement. If you want something quick to cool down with but not something that weighs you down, this is perfect.
Overall Experience: The Black Out Mixr succeeds by being refreshing and playful. It’s not just about the spooky look — the flavor balance really works here, with mango and pineapple leading, blueberry grounding it, and lime lifting it. It feels tropical but dark, fruity but a little edgy.
Would I order again? Yes, especially over the Eclipse if I wanted something lighter and more refreshing. It’s a strong seasonal item that doesn’t just lean on its looks.
