Wine Winner: Aldi-Exclusive Belletti Prosecco

This prosecco, which costs $8.99 per bottle, is an extra dry sparkling white wine imported from Italy. The bubbly beverage features soft and fruity peach and pear notes at first, followed by hints of apple peel and lemon zest.

Juice Winner: Aldi-Exclusive Nature’s Nectar OJ Blends

When it comes to juice, there are no shortage of choices at the grocery store, which makes this win for Aldi all the more impressive. This winning juice comes in two flavors—Orange Peach Mango and Orange Strawberry Banana—and each one costs $2.49. Additionally, each delicious option is made from 100% juice, which helps consumers reach their daily fruit intake. Both varieties are also an excellent source of vitamin C, and each one is made from a blend of six different juices that seamlessly come together. Drink this juice with your breakfast, or use it in your favorite fruit smoothies for an added nutrient boost.

Pasta Winner: Aldi-Exclusive Priano Hearty Ravioli 

This convenient meal, which retails for $5.49, cooks in less than five minutes and comes in two tasty varieties. The mushroom version is meat-free and boasts a classic mix of roasted portabella mushrooms and creamy cheese inside the thinly rolled pasta. The Italian Sausage Ravioli, on the other hand, consists of pasta encasing a traditional blend of Italian sausage and different cheeses. Enjoy the ravioli on its own with your go-to pasta sauce, or serve it as a side as part of a larger meal.

Aside from being used when pan-frying and sautéing, these oils can also shine in salad dressings, marinades, baking recipes, and more.
