Do you have a favorite over-priced drink?
Rockstar Juiced..guava flavor. Roughly $2 each retail. My son manages a C store so I get them a little over invoice, about $35 for a case of 24.
Reply:Everything from Starbucks.
Reply:Sobe
Reply:I ♥ pomegranate Izze!!!! I also really like Monster and Rockstar energy drinks. For 1 can, it is ~$2.00!!! I really like it but I can barely ever have it because it is so expensive. SoBe is also kind of expensive and that is pretty much my favorite drink in the whole wide world. I also really like blackberry Izze and grapefruit Izze. Jones Soda I ♥♥♥♥♥ so much. I really like the green apple and the cream soda flavors. But it is so expensive!! Izze and Jones are about $5.00 for 4 bottles!! It is insane how much they charge but it is really good for a special treat!! ☺

Great Cocktails?

I've got the whole house to myself this weekend (woohoo!) and so I'm definitely going to have some "Me-time" and relax. I was at the store today and they had a great deal on strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. I've got some Grenadine in the fridge (pomegranate juice), and I've also got some fresh lemons and limes. What 'cocktails' can I make that taste very good and are easy to make? Please provide recipes. Just please keep in mind that I am a minor (I'm 16) so I cannot have alcoholic beverages of any kind so DON'T put booze in it!

Great Cocktails?
Red Robin sells a wonderful Strawberry-Limeade. Pretty-much you need what the name is. Whole strawberries and some lime.





Pomegranate and blueberries are a good drink as well.With Raspberries.
Reply:Grenadine is cherry, but it sounds like you can mix all the berries together in a blender with some ice and/or ice cream or yogurt and make a great smoothie.

Need a cute custom name for a signature party drink!?

Throwing a fiesta for a 30th birthday and wanted to make pomegranate margaritas as the "signature" drink. Im known for customizing drink names (i.e.~last year I invented the Gianna-tini for a party). Im SO STUCK on this one.... Its for a Jennifer. I was thinking Jennyrita, but thats typical. And I like Jenn-n-Juice, but that doesnt go w/ the margarita. .... Any ideas?????

Is there any other juice besides cranberry juice that can prevent and treat UTIs?

I know that 100% cranberry juice can and does help treat urinary tract infections, but I hate the bitter taste! I know that drinking cranberry juice with sugar and from concentrate like Ocan Spray isn't as helpful as the organic kind, so I don't bother. BUt this brand of 100% juice not from concentrate that has no added sugar that I've tried also has this GREAT tasting blueberry-pomegranate juice. They also have blueberry-cran juice but that is not so great either. Is it ok to drink the blue-pom juice instead of cran juice? does it do the same things because of the great antioxidants in blueberries and pom? Or is there something else about cran that makes it work?

Is there any other juice besides cranberry juice that can prevent and treat UTIs?
My health food lady recommended to me Black Cherry Extract (capsules) as a preventative, and Cranberry (capsules) as a cleanser. This way I totally avoid the sugar in the Ocean Spray (as I am diabetic too).
Reply:Actaully, my Dr told me that drinking cranberry juice is not 100%. It helps some people and not others. He didn't say why. Same with cranberry pills. You can get those at GNC or vitamin store.





But drinking water - LOTS of water -helps to prevent one.
Reply:Sure, try ACV - apple cider vinegar. You can cocktail it with honey. Daily ACV will help to regulate your pH and create an environment unsuitable for UTIs.








Be sure to look for raw, unfiltered, unpastuerized, organic ACV. Adjust the cocktail to taste, or simply mix with water (shake well first to mix the "mother" that settles at the bottom). I prefer Braggs(.com), although there are other manufacturers.
Reply:The point of cranberries is the acidic level, it rises in your bladder and causes a bad environment for germs to grow. Try eating craisins Ocean spray makes them. They are like raisins and in the isle next to them in the market. I eat a hand full a day with trail mix or yogurt and am UTI free. So far no other fruit raises the level of acid in your bladder.
Reply:Try drinking cherry juice , it's good for your health.
