Simply Limeade

Four years ago (wow this blog has been around that long...) I made a post about juices I like, and since then I've found some better options. Lately I've been hooked on Simply Limeade and Lemonade. The juices are made with 12% lime or lemon juice, water and sugar (no corn syrup), and that's it. No other ingredients and both juices taste great. I haven't tried their orange juice, which doesn't even have any sugar added. Just pasteurized orange juice, which is pretty impressive. A blogger at Slashfood shares my opinion, as do several friends who have tried it themselves. Simply Orange is actually a subsidary of Coca Cola, but they don't say so on their site, unlike Minute Made, Dasani, and other Coke children.

Another set of juices I've liked recently are Dole Chilled Juices, specifically the Orange Peach Mango flavor. We had some on our recent ski trip and everyone liked it then. Strawberry Kiwi was also good, but I wasn't excited by a lot of the other flavors. I'm not too keen on juices with banana or carrot flavor. Selection may vary from store to store, but you can probably find a combination that works for you.
