Ocean Spray Cranergy Energy Drinks

I was recently asked to review the new Ocean Spray Cranergy drinks. I got them in the mail, put them in the fridge to chill, and came back two hours later to find two kids with red mustaches chugging them outside under the trampoline. They liked them very much.

I then went out and bought myself some more. The drinks themselves are really good. I don’t care for overly sugary, syrupy drinks and so I liked that this tasted more like natural fruits than sugar. It does have a great blend of vitamins and other natural antioxidants and good for you stuff, so you can feel like you’re doing something good for yourself when you’re drinking.

My only qualm with the juice is that it contains red dye #40. Considering the negative affects of additives, particularly red dye, I think Ocean Spray would do much better health-wise if they stuck to the natural color from the fruits. So all in all, better than most drinks, but still not healthy enough for me to want to drink regularly.

  1. i also tried it. i find it ok. sometimes an odd smell and taste but overall pretty yummy. however i did not feel any extra energy (i was trying to use them to help my energy level while working 3rd shift) and i noticed if i had more than one serving i would have to make a run for the bathroom.
