Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango Drink is a ready-to-serve mango fruit drink, mostly water and sugar with a small share of mango pulp.

Best kept as an occasional sweet drink.

Why Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango Drink scores [F]DB4
Nutrition is a D, held up only by added vitamin D. Ingredients are a B, with points lost to colours and flavouring. Risk is a 4 because added sugar is 13.2 g per 100 ml.
Low nutrient density

- Energy
- 63 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why D
The panel gives no protein, no fat and no fibre, so the core of the grade is zero. All that lifts it is the added vitamin D, 3.0 mcg per 100 ml.
Without that fortification the grade would drop a step lower. The only protein contribution from an ingredient is the mango pulp, and the panel rounds it to nothing.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

- Tartrazine
02 Ingredient integrity: why B
The list leads with water and sugar. Mango pulp concentrate is third at 8%, so the fruit is a small share of what is in the bottle.
Tartrazine (102) and sunset yellow (110) cost ingredient points, and so do the nature-identical flavouring and the pectin, though pectin costs less. Citric acid and potassium sorbate cost nothing. No label promise is hollow, so the integrity score is clean.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 13.2 g
- Sodium
- 3.2 mg
03 Load risk: why 4
Added sugar is almost the whole risk number: 13.2 g per 100 ml, so 26.4 g in a 200 ml serve. Sodium is 3.2 mg per 100 ml and there is no saturated fat or trans fat.
Energy adds a little, at 62.8 kcal per 100 ml. Sugar alone puts the drink at a 4.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
[F] Added vitamins or minerals meaningfully lift this product's nutrition grade. Without them it would score lower.

Does Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango Drink live up to its claims?
The vitamin D claim holds and the mango is real, but it is 8% pulp concentrate. The 500 ml daily limit on the pack would mean about 66 g added sugar.
- Product namePartly true
“Slurpy Mango”
Mango pulp concentrate is listed at 8%, equal to 16% reconstituted mango juice, and flavours are added. Water and sugar come first.
- On the packBe careful
“Juicier Drink”
The pack does not say juicier than what. The juice share is 16% reconstituted mango juice, and the rest is water and sugar.
- On the packHolds
“with Vitamin D”
Vitamin D2 is 3.0 mcg per 100 ml, about 6 mcg a 200 ml serve, which the pack prints as 40% of the daily requirement.
- On the packBe careful
“Limit yourself to 500ml a day”
The advice is honest, but 500 ml holds about 66 g added sugar and 314 kcal. One 200 ml serve already has 26.4 g added sugar.
What's in Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango Drink?
Water, sugar and mango pulp lead the list. Two colours, flavouring and two preservatives follow, and the colours and flavouring cost ingredient points.
11 ingredients listed. Additives and watched ingredients we rate: 2 moderate concern, 1 no concern. 3 more entries look like additives we have not researched yet.
The ingredient list, read for you
Water and sugar come first, then mango pulp concentrate at 8%, which the pack equates to 16% reconstituted mango juice. Citric acid sets the tartness, pectin gives body, and flavours add to the mango taste. Two preservatives (codes 202 and 242) keep it, two food colours (102 and 110) deepen the yellow-orange, and vitamin D2 is added at the end.
The label numbers, read for you
Added sugar decides the score: 13.2 g per 100 ml, 26.4 g in the 200 ml serve and about 79 g in the full 600 ml bottle. Energy is 62.8 kcal per 100 ml, about 126 kcal a serve.
Protein, fat and saturated fat are all 0 g, and sodium is only 3.2 mg per 100 ml. Vitamin D is the one micronutrient declared, at 3.0 mcg per 100 ml; no fibre is shown.
What the additives do
Tartrazine (moderate concern): lemon-yellow colour. A synthetic lemon-yellow azo dye and one of the Southampton Six. The EU requires a hyperactivity warning on every product containing it. More on Tartrazine.
Sunset Yellow FCF (moderate concern): orange or yellow colour. A synthetic orange azo dye and one of the Southampton Six. The EU requires a hyperactivity warning on foods that contain it. More on Sunset Yellow FCF.
Potassium Sorbate (no concern): stops mould and yeast. A widely used preservative against mould and yeast. Low toxicity. More on Potassium Sorbate.
Not in our additive research yet: Acidity Regulator (Citric Acid); Stabilizer (Pectin); INS 242.
Ingredients to watch
- Tartrazine (102)Worth watching
A synthetic yellow dye that gives the drink its mango colour. It costs ingredient points.
- Sunset yellow FCF (110)Worth watching
A synthetic orange-yellow dye that deepens the colour of a drink with only 8% mango pulp. It costs ingredient points.
- Flavours (nature-identical and natural)Worth watching
Add mango aroma beyond what the pulp gives. It costs ingredient points.
- Pectin (stabilizer)Worth watching
A gelling fibre that keeps the pulp evenly mixed and the drink slightly thick. It costs ingredient points.
- Potassium sorbate (202)Fine
A preservative that slows mould and yeast so the sweet drink keeps on the shelf.
What it doesn’t have
- No fibre is declared, and the fruit is only 8% pulp, so the drink does not give what whole mango does.
What to know about Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango Drink
A mango drink that is mostly sugar water
Paper Boat Swing Slurpy Mango is a 600 ml ready-to-serve fruit drink built from water, sugar and mango pulp concentrate (8%, equal to 16% reconstituted mango juice). Citric acid, flavours, pectin, two preservatives, two food colours and vitamin D2 complete the list. It is bought as a sweet, mango-flavoured drink for the fridge, with vitamin D on the front as the selling point.
Per 100 ml the drink has 62.8 kcal, 15.5 g sugar of which 13.2 g is added, and no protein or fat. The pack serve is 200 ml, a third of the bottle, which gives about 126 kcal and 26.4 g added sugar, a little over half of the daily value the pack prints. The vitamin D is 3.0 mcg per 100 ml, so about 6 mcg a serve.
The name promises a slurpy mango drink. The mango is real, but it comes third after water and sugar, and the colour is topped up with tartrazine and sunset yellow. The vitamin D claim is true, and it is what lifts the nutrition grade. CleanPlate scores it [F]DB4.
