Very good. But also loaded with a retarded amount of sugar. :(

I think it has more sugars than most soft drinks.

Must drink in limited quantities.

I've been cutting down on soda as well. I've been drinking THIS instead. It's quite good.

I agree... the stuff is kinda expensive, though.

Bonus! Cranberry juice ruduces the risk of yeast infections. Yummy!! :p

The simple sugars in soda = empty calories. 150+ calories of nothing of any nutritional value.

At least with fruit juice you are getting some vitamin C. Not that you can't easily gain that through a suplement with little to no caloric value or through veggies with very little calories either.

Plus most juices are between 10-30% fruit juice; the rest being water, and other crap. I like Orange Juice... 100% pure and costs the same

can you say pulp.... mmmmm :D

I stopped drinking soda because it has a tendency to make me feel really crappy. It has nothing to do with sugar for me.

"empty calories" are just what you need when you're hiking/mountain climbing/etc. That's why chocolate is so popular with mountain climbers.

If you eat the stereotypical "balanced diet", you'll have 100% RDA of everything at only 2000 calories, not NEARLY enough for strenuous exercise.

oh wait, Americans don't exercise :p

Hmmm, I;d rather have some white grape juice.... anything with cranberries is a little too sour to drink a lot of.
