Ocean Spray Cranergy

When you think of Ocean Spray, do you think of the commercial where those two farmer-type guys are standing in cranberry fields exercising? It’s a commercial that really irritates my husband. It doesn’t bother me so much and since I’m a fan of Ocean Spray, I say whatever. Regardless, when I opened up a package recently that held Ocean Spray Cranergy, I couldn’t help think about those two guys in the cranberry field.

While I don’t think those guys are all that hip, Ocean Spray has a new drink out that is very hip, Cranergy Energy Juice Drink. I’m a sucker for packaging, and this bottle looks refreshing, hip and very enticing. It would draw my attention in a cooler at a store.

Let me tell you up front that I am not a sugar-substitute kind of girl. I think the more natural the food, the better. But I understand that no sugar means less calories, and that’s a big deal. The first taste you take tastes a bit odd with a slight after-taste. I think this is the Splenda and since I have not experienced Splenda, I cannot verify this. After the first few tastes, though, this drink grows on you. It has a refreshing flavor that tastes "cool." I tried the Raspberry Cranberry Lift. I love cranberries and raspberries, so the two together was great! Your other choice is Cranberry Lift. I imagine both would make a great summer morning drink.

The really great part of Cranergy is that it gives you a natural energy boost. With green tea extract and B-vitamins, you get a natural jolt of energy without all the sugar. I drank one this morning before a very busy and stressful day-I will say that I felt good all day. I didn’t have that mid-afternoon crash I normally do.

I think Ocean Spray has provided yet another quality product. This hip, new energy drink is sure to be a favorite for those on the go. Check out their website for lots of great information on Cranergy! I give it a
