Cranberry Juice
Cranberry juice
Cranberry juice has a light and refreshing flavor that has a slight tartness. The juices come in several versions, including juices without any additional sugar, cranberry juice cocktail and diet juices. Well-known cranberry juice brands include Ocean Spray.
Cranberry cocktails
Cranberry cocktails are one version of cranberry juice. These juices often contain some type of sugar or sweetener, which adds a sweetness to the juice. A cocktail juice typically mixes several types of juices together in a single bottle, such as apple juice and cranberry juice. You can even find some products that use grape juice as a base. The manufacturer adds a small amount of cranberry juice to the finished product, which gives it the tart flavor and dark color associated with cranberries. Some products use the word combination in the name because the juice contains cranberry with another fruit such as blueberry or pomegranate.
Other cranberry products
If you need to cut back on calories, look for diet juices. These juices use an artificial sweetener in place of the sugar, which reduces the number of calories in each glass. You can also find cranberry products that mix the cranberry juice with another product such as iced tea. When you want something a little different, look for thickened cranberry juice, which has a thicker and heartier texture than ordinary cranberry juice. You might even want a cranberry concentrate because these products contain the essence of the juice. The products use only pure cranberry juice without any sugar or other fillers.
