I just saw an Ocean Spray (the cranberry people hee in theUS) ad for a new
product for no sugar at all cranberry juice. Have any of you seen, bought or tried this? Unless it has some artificial sweeteners in it it shuld be plenty sour! Any thought, ideas, etc. Wendy |

Any thought, ideas, etc. I got a bottle of unsweetened cranberry juice from Trader Joe's some time ago, and I opened it at Christmas. Without sweetener it is sour as all get out, but I added a little erythritol to a glass and it was fine. I diluted it with seltzer and had a nice cranberry fizz. Lots of lovely antioxidants and little spikability. Priscilla |

I don't remember if it was that brand. It was sour and a little bitter. |

It sounds like I might try it and go Priscilla's route in a sweetened spritzerand use it in cooking for nice tang in some dishes. In view of tehh strength, I might also try at breakfast diluted and splenda'ed for a good pill washer downer. Wendy |

Someoone else may have a bottle and can provide more specific inromation. Wendy |

Any thought, ideas, etc. Wendy We use it to add flavor to various sugar free drinks like tropicana diet lemonade and polar diet half & half (lemon lime soda). A little bit of cranberry goes a long way to improve the flavor of other drinks. You can add a little rum to the lemonade and cranberry and it makes a nice rum punch. Great summer drink. ed |

Any thought, ideas, etc. There's always been unsweetened cranberry juice, though it's harder to find than the cranberry juice cocktail sutff. Though it's sour as heck, it's still pretty carby. I don't use it straight, but dilute it and add stevia - same as for lemon or lime juice. Sort of a cran-ade drink. -- http://www.ornery-geeks.org/consulting/ |

It seems to me it'd be darned good in diet ginger ale. -- http://www.ornery-geeks.org/consulting/ |

It's sweetened with Splenda and only has 6 carbs for 8 oz. I like it much better and they have different flavors, ie Apple Raspberry, Apple Cranberry, Cran Grape. Old Orchard, in it's non-diet state, can be found in most grocery stores but you have to look for the diet or ask the store manager to carry more. |

That's why the idea of unsweetened appeals to me. In tht way I ccan dilute and sweeten it to my taste. Cranberry juice is usually diluted as it si so strong just full strength. Wendy |
