What the AI looks for in Frozen Cranberry Juices
- Cocktail vs 100% juice
- 'Cranberry juice cocktail' is sweetened. '100% juice' cranberry is sweetened with other fruit juices such as apple or grape. Pure cranberry is very tart, so you are always choosing between sugar and juice blending.
- Cranberry share
- Check where cranberry appears in the ingredient list of '100% juice' blends. Many blends are mostly apple or grape juice with cranberry for color and flavor.
- Sweetener
- Note whether it uses sugar, corn syrup or a low-calorie sweetener. This sets both the calories and the aftertaste.
Brands that matter
- Old Orchard: Cranberry cocktail and cranberry blend frozen concentrates.
- Ocean Spray: Category leader for cranberry; frozen concentrate availability is patchy.
What to avoid
- Buying cocktail when you need low sugar, for example for urinary-health routines.
