What You Should Know

Ocean Spray Diet Juice, Cranberry Grape is sold in a large 64 fl oz plastic bottle and typically lives in the refrigerated juice aisle or on endcaps near other flavored juice drinks, diet mixers, and cocktail mixers. You’ll often see it shelved beside regular cranberry juices, juice blends, and non-alcoholic cocktail mixers. It suits quick grocery runs for mixers or low-calorie beverage swaps — think weekend brunch mimosas, game-day mocktails, or stocking the fridge for road trips and family gatherings. Ocean Spray positions this product as a bold-flavored, heritage brand choice: familiar, Americana-rooted, and family-oriented, pitched to adults who want big taste with fewer calories and to home entertainers who use it as a mixer. The label leans into health halos — “diet,” “only 5 calories,” “excellent source of vitamin C,” and “made from real fruit juice” — while using bright, playful color cues that also appeal to families and kids, though it is not organic and carries artificial food dyes and sweeteners. In plain terms, this cranberry-grape drink is a highly processed juice beverage made from concentrated juices plus flavorings, acids, stabilizers, sweeteners, and colorants. Sensory notes: the liquid is thin, brightly colored purple-red, effusive with a tart-fruit aroma and a crisp, puckery finish offset by intense sweetness from sucralose and acesulfame potassium. Rituals include pouring over ice, mixing into cocktails or mocktails, or using it as a tart splash in recipes — convenient, shelf-friendly, and ready whenever a low-calorie fruity boost is wanted.
