Cranberry juice cocktail
Did you know that cranberries are the fruit that is lowest in sugar? It’s true!
So how can something so good for you turn bad? Easy.
Let the juice industry get a hold of it.
Because cranberries are so tart, Ocean Spray (the cranberry juice company) even wrote in an official letter to the FDA that, “cranberries … are naturally low in sugar, giving them a distinctly tart, astringent, and even unpalatable taste.”
Because of their “unpalatable taste,” companies load up their cranberry juice with sugar—and lots of it. One cup of Ocean Spray cranberry juice cocktail contains 25 grams of sugar.
