5 Facts on Pricklee from Shark Tank

We know water isn’t the first thing one thinks of when you hear about a cactus.  Maybe you would think of a desert, sand, everything dry.  Well Pricklee has a different idea.  They are naming their product the nation’s ultimate thirst quencher.  Where does it come from?  A cactus!  The owners of Pricklee are taking their thirst quencher to the Shark Tank stage to see if a shark will bite.  What is Pricklee all about?  Let’s find out.

1.  Pricklee was started by five healthcare who don’t like coconut water.  

They were searching for an alternative when Mo, one of the founders remembered one of his favorite childhood beverages when he was growing up in Lebanon.  It was a drink using the delicious fruit of the cactus, known as the prickly pear.  

What does Pricklee, the juice from the fruit of a cactus, taste like?

According to Mo and his family, it tasted like a combination of watermelon and bubblegum.  You can imagine how much kids would clamor to get something that tasty.
