Need Some Cranergy?

I’m always interested in trying new products for my family. So when I was asked if I wanted to try the new Cranergy from Ocean Spray, I said, “bring it on!”

I’m not a huge fan of the cranberry, but to my surprise the Raspberry Cranberry energy drink was VERY smooth. According to the ingredients, cranberry is the third ingredient, good news if you’re not a fan of the tart fruit. I enjoyed my sample and it was perfect for a mid-afternoon pick me up especially since I recommitted to eating less! Each 12 oz. bottle contains 50 calories. Ocean Spray claims the juice helps to restore our natural energy and though I didn’t eat a large lunch, after I drank the energy drink I didn’t feel that late afternoon crash. So maybe there’s something to their claim.

I like the fact it has green tea extract, but my family has given up Splenda and artificial (Red Dye 40) colorings which this product contains. So if you don’t mind those things, then give it a shot. I do think kids would like the taste and it’s a nice alternative to water!

Here’s what they say:

• Cranberry juice and green tea extract: both contain high levels of antioxidants that help the body fight free radicals and stay healthy, and green tea extract offers a natural source of caffeine
• B-vitamins: support healthy energy production
• Vitamin C: helps boost your immune system
