It is better to eat an orange (because it had fiber) than to drink a glass of orange juice. Northern makes 100% Cran-Grape juice, but be forewarned, it is going to be bitter after the Ocean Spray because Ocean Spray adds so much sugar to theirs. TO help me, I add apple juice to the Northern.

Otherwise, great suggestions!!
There are two kinds of Ocean Spray Cran Grape. The one with the sugar, or as they call it "corn syrup" is around 2.50 a bottle and contains between 10-20% juice and the 100% juice is over 4.00. It also contains other fruits to help it taste sweeter such as apples, pears, etc. You have to check for the 100% pure on the bottle. The juice containing corn syrup tends to be thicker because it's only syrup, flavoring, and water.
