During the holidays and remainder of the winter I like to keep a container of cranberry juice cocktail readily available for myself as well as guests. This juice tastes refreshing on its own merit and packs a punch full of much needed vitamin c. The drink also makes a splendid evening cocktail when mixed with the right amount of vodka and ice and served in a tall glass. The last couple of years I have purchased the Meijer Cranberry Juice Cocktail and it has been a winner. I usually buy the 64 ounce portion size which goes for $1.99. That is about fifty cents cheaper than the competing Ocean Spray brand. The Meijer cranberry product line not only sells original cranberry, but other cran juice blends that are mixed with such flavors as raspberry and grape.
The taste of the cranberry cocktail is light and refreshing and is as good if not better than the Ocean Spray juice. I like the fact that I can get a comparable product for much cheaper. I also have tried the cranberry raspberry blend and have enjoyed even more. Another great drink option using the Meijer cranberry juice is to mix it with a lemon lime soda such as Sierra Mist or Sprite. This is a nice alcohol free alternative for those that prefer a light cool drink with a little fizz.
I rate this product a very strong buy as it serves as a good morning juice on its own or a great standby for mixing with other items.
