Ocean Spray Sparkling Juice | Review

I have a little confession to make:  I absolutely LOVE soda.  If it were calorie-free (I don’t drink or like diet soda), I would drink it every day. But since its all sugar (high-fructose corn syrup to be exact) and about 150 calories a serving, I drink it on occasion.  Recently I was contacted by Ocean Spray® offering to send me some samples of their new sparkling juice to try out, which comes in two flavors; cranberry and Pomegranate-blueberry.

Ocean Spray® Sparkling Juice is made with 70 percent real fruit juice and no added sugar, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives, Sparkling Juice Drinks blend the fruit juice from fresh cranberries, sweet blueberries and juicy pomegranates with a splash of crisp, clean sparkling water for added effervescent refreshment. Offering just 90 calories per serving, one can is a good source of vitamin C and equals a full serving of fruit.

Those looking for an alternative with fewer calories can enjoy Diet Ocean Spray® Sparkling Juice Drinks with just 10 little calories per serving. Like the original, diet varieties are also made with real fruit juice, are a good source of vitamin C, and contain no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

My Thoughts

I received two cans of each flavor: Cranberry (regular and diet) and Pomegranate-Blueberry (regular and diet). As soon as I received the samples, I could not wait to try them.  I’m a huge lover of fruits, especially cranberries (love those Craisins!) and pomegranates, so I knew I would like Ocean Spray Sparkling Juice.  If you’re a soda lover like me, you will not miss soda by any means when you drink this.  Ocean Spray Sparkling Juice has the right amount of juice and carbonation.  It’s crisp, refreshing and delicious.  Although I loved both flavors, my favorite was Pomegranate-Blueberry. It contained the right mix of sweetness and the right combination of both fruits.  Ocean Spray did really well when they created this masterpiece.

As for the diet version, I was amazed and shocked that I actually liked it. Normally, I don’t like “diet anything” but Diet Ocean Spray Sparkling Juice was equally delicious and refreshing.  You can definitely taste the natural flavors. You must try it!
