Is it Juice, or is it Soda? Healthier Alternatives.

In the never ending quest for healthier food and drinks, that are still acceptable to the teenagers in my house, I tried something new this weekend. It's called "The Switch". No sugar, no dyes, no preservatives. Tastes like soda, but it's all juice with fizz. Below is what the company has to say about it, but more important is what my kids say, "Are we out already?". We found it at Target at the Poughkeepsie Galleria.

We were tired of all the hype. You know, the weird ingredients you can't even pronounce. The natural-sounding drinks that have artificial colors and flavors. The "juice drinks" that are 6% juice. That's why we started The Switch. So we could make a healthy, all-natural, 100% juice beverage without any hype. Then we added carbonation to make it fun.



We do not add any sugar (or as some of them call it on their list of ingredients: corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, medium invert (when did corn become a fruit?).
We do not add artificial flavors or colors.
We do not add preservatives.
We do not add mystery ingredients that supposedly make you sexier, less bald, lose weight, etc.
