Cranberry juice cocktail? Pomegranate juice cocktail? |
|
The only cranberry or pomegranate juices that supermarkets sell are cocktail versions -- cranberry-grape, cranberry-blueberry, pomegranate-apple, etc.
What not just plain old 100% cranberry juice and 100% pomegranate juice?

1. Pom makes 100% pomegranate juice. |
|
So does Knudsen (who also makes 100% cranberry juice). Quite a few companies make pure cranberry juice, but you may have to go to a health food store to find it. It's also quite pricey about $7/quart.

3. Pom right now is under fire from animal rights activists |
|
The activists aren't happy that Pom has performed animal testing for their products. Pom the other week filed a federal lawsuit against the activists, hoping to get them labled "domestic terrorists".

14. Reading comprehension is not your strong point, obviously. |
|
POM is suing the activists. The fact that you support cruel & unnecessary animal testing is disturbing, however.

12. straight cranberry is pretty sour, but I have seen it |
|
straight pom is EXPENSIVE but I have seen it as well (Pom, is a brand I think) You can buy pomegranates this time of year and juice them yourself - still they are a bit pricey - but YUM!
