    And yet it’s almost impossible to find just plain Cranberry juice in the US. The manufacturers do everything they can to try to trick you into buying “Cranberry Juice Cocktail” or “Cranberry-Flavored Juice”. It’s all just water, apple juice, and a bit of Cranberry concentrate. The real thing is ridiculously expensive and comes in small, artisanal, glass bottles.

    Cran-Apple is probably better in most applications anyways. The deceptive marketing around it just irks me.

      Not sure where you live but I’ve had no trouble.

      RW Knudsen seems to be the only option but readily available.

      Part of the problem is that plain cranberry juice is an acquired taste, and many people find it borderline undrinkable.

        Those small bottles aren’t that expensive when you consider you will probably be drinking small amounts at a time - it is pretty intense, but in a good way
