Orange Juice
I was looking to buy juice for me to drink once I get home from the hospital. First checked OJ trying to keep in mind I wanted one low in sugar and that was real......pulp free.......and didn't cost more per ounce then gold. I found some organic juice.....it was almost $5.00 for a carton! WOW As I stood there comparing labels my kids kept saying "just get the sunny D Mom, that's what WE like" so I gave up and decided to get other juice. Heck it's confusing! I know what kind I buy for the kids.....but never noticed how many grams of sugar their juice has, even with the label that says 100% juice, no sugar added.
I finally just bought some Crystal Lite Sunrise, figured I couldn't go wrong with that! But it still isn't real oj or apple juice and I know I'm going to be wanting some.....I love OJ and apple juice.
So what do you guys drink????
We stock up on Propel at Costco. My husband loves juice, but he has only wanted H2O, Propel, and sometimes Crystal light. Everything else is just too sweet for him...For most, not all, but most people your taste buds change and things are much stronger then pre-surgery.
You can always get a juicer- they have a nice one at costco and make your own juice. The best homemade juice is carrot, orange, pineapple then blend with ice....mmm so refreshing.
I was a manager at a "trendy" juice and coffee shop so I have tons of healthy recipes if anyone wants.
Good luck on your juice quest.

I have a dumb question.... what abou****ering down the juice like we do for the babies?? Wouldn't that help with the sweetness and the sugar, as well as make it stretch??? I have tried the crystal lite's as well, but I even have found that I like it better when I add a little more water than what it calls for. I dunno... maybe it's just me?
