" True story: I was caught at Los Angeles International Airport trying to smuggle &amp;quot;contraband&amp;quot; into the country. No, it wasn&amp;#039;t weapons, drugs, or anything horribly illicit (minds out of the gutter please). It was fruit. A few pieces of a very precious fruit that was impossible to obtain in the United States. It was the beloved mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana). For those of you who are unfamiliar with this unassuming little fruit, it is widely regarded as one of the most delicious and exquisite fruits in the world. Looking kind of like a squat, rotund eggplant with subtly creamy white segmented flesh that tastes a little like a strawberry, a peach, and a tangerine combined, this fruit native to South East Asia is almost worth breaking the law for (trust me). In the last few years mangosteen has become somewhat more available in an imported, expensive and irradiated form, that doesn&amp;#039;t seem to taste nearly as good as what you would find in a Hong Kong market. But the desire remains, and here a relatively new juice player in the market, Bossa Nova Superfruit Juice, takes a stab at mangosteen flavor in liquid form.    Bossa Nova Superfruit Mangosteen Juice with Passionfruit is more than its duo billing, as it has not two fruit juices, but four. Passionfruit, guava, red peach and (of course) mangosteen combined make for a tropical, somewhat undefined, fruit drink experience. If I had to pick, I would say the guava is the dominant flavor here, with peach running a close second, and somewhere in there is the resonant tang of the mangosteen. Considering its cloudy, amber nectar appearance, and the lack of familiarity with what exactly a mangosteen really is (no relation to the mango), many people might not jump at the chance to consume this unknown quantity (despite all of the antioxidant health claims on the plastic bottle). However the brave and intrepid ones will likely drink it down with great enthusiasm, and receiving just a pale sense of the true mangosteen experience. Bossa Nova Superfruit Mangosteen Juice with Passionfruit is sold in 10-ounce bottles ($2.99) and is available at Giant, Price Chopper, Safeway, Stop &amp;amp;amp; Shop, Wegman&amp;#039;s, and Kroger.
