I've tossed away the corn-syrup-filled fruit juices in my house and I've been replacing them with healthier versions. (I'm not giving up my Dr. Pepper just yet...).  I came across the V8-Fusion Pomegranate Blueberry drink in Florida while on vacation a year ago. 

We polished off the entire bottle quickly.  It is a delicious drink and with a "full serving of fruits and vegetables," and I feel good about drinking it.  It is not a low calorie drink and contains 23 grams of sugar which makes it 100 calories per serving but compared to drinking pop, it is a healthy alternative.

The 46-ounce bottle contains six servings and sells for approximately three dollars per bottle.  If you don't like the regular V-8 drink but want to get some health benefits, this drink is a tasty alternative.  It contains a vegetable juice blend (sweet potatoes, purple carrots, tomatoes and carrots).  My only concern is that the fruit concentrate also contains apples and I wonder if there is way more apple juice concentrate than the blueberry and pomegranate.  For that reason, I have it rated at a four.

Overall, this is a fruit/vegetable drink that is delicious!

My youngest requested this in our household and we now love it!!! We bought the Pomegranate & Blueberry too. It's really good!

The Pomegranate/blueberry is the only one I haven't tried yet (not crazy about pomegranate) But I love the others they have, great taste! Ron

I love this drink,especially since I dislike vegetables, but it's so expensive. I wish I could find a home made recipe to duplicate the taste at a fraction of the cost.

Even worse than the corn-syrup drinks are all those sugar-water concoctions, like Hi-C that masquerade as healthy. We've been switching to Juicy Juice, though I think these V-8 drinks sound pretty good. I'll have to give 'me a try!

I sure have some catching up to do! Thanks for the welcome back. Actually with 4 changes in time lost 4 hours heading from L.A. to San Juan and then had to go back one hour, my system is out of whack so NOW I need a vacation:) Jo
