Fruit Flavored Sugar Drinks

There are many fruit juices and smoothies on the market, but there are also fruit flavored drinks loaded with sugar. If you are looking for a healthier option, look for drinks that have 100 percent fruit juice on the label. Many juice brands claim to be fruit juice, but really consist of artificial flavors. However, if you are looking for tasty fruit flavored drinks, and not counting calories, there are plenty of sweet drinks to choose from. Add this to my Recipe Box.
