This paradise drink tastes just like its name; it’s heavenly! I love the tropical taste of pineapple and passion fruit. Your taste buds are certainly going on a trip with the sweet fruitiness of this drink. You will also pick up a creamy taste due to the coconut milk. The tanginess that could come off from the pineapple and passion fruit is toned down by coconut milk. The result is a sweet taste of natural fruits. The caffeine from the green extract might not have a distinct taste but it sure does have a distinct effect on your energy levels.
