My Favorite HEALTHY Things

Ocean Spray Diet Blueberry Juice Drink.  Eat, drink, and be BERRY, I say.  If you're like me, you prefer to eat your calories rather than drink them because, well, eating is just so much fun!  Plus, most fruit juices are chock full of calories and extra sugar, and they don't provide any of the fiber or the chewing satisfaction of a piece of fruit.  Granted, a bowl of luscious blueberries is a beautiful thing, especially when you have the luxury of sitting around long enough to pop them in your mouth one at a time.  Mmmmmmm.  But we're burning daylight, and sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. 

Enter, Ocean Spray Diet Blueberry Juice Drink.  Now, label reading is important here because you do not want to confuse this with regular Ocean Spray Blueberry Juice, Ocean Spray Light Blueberry Juice, or Ocean Spray No Sugar Added Blueberry Juice, all of which total anywhere from 50 to 140 calories per 8-ounce serving.  No, no, no.  The Diet version provides a practically nonexistent 5 calories and delivers 100% of the RDA for Vitamin C -- that's 100% of your Vitamin C in 5 measly calories!  And blueberries are loaded with antioxidants, so down the hatch!

Enjoy it straight over ice, mixed with sparkling water or iced tea, or added to your favorite morning smoothie.  And if it's 5:00 somewhere, throw a little vodka in there with a twist of lemon, and the hour is suddenly HAPPY.  (Naturally, you didn't hear that from me.)
