Ocean Spray Juice, Lime Cocktail

Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice Cocktail with Lime (64 fl oz) sits on the grocery juice shelf as a familiar, family-friendly jug you see next to other fruit cocktails, mixers and mainstream bottled juices. You'd find it in the center-aisle juice and beverage section — often near 100% juices, fruit drinks, and cocktail mixers — and sometimes in promotional endcaps with other Ocean Spray varieties. It's the kind of item shoppers grab for summer picnics, casual brunches, storm-prep pantry stocking, or when they want a quick, citrusy mixer for cocktails. The brand leans on nostalgia and broad appeal: Ocean Spray evokes American cranberry bog imagery, targeting families and adults who want a recognizable, affordable fruit drink with a heritage brand behind it. Packaging and label cues play up health halos and nature-adjacent language — “real cranberries,” “vitamin C” — and use bright red and green colors to signal fruit and lime; there are natural-flavor claims but no organic certification. Processing context: this is a sweetened, shelf-stable juice cocktail made from concentrate and added ingredients rather than a single-ingredient 100% juice. Sensory details: pourable, glossy deep-pink liquid with a tart-sweet cranberry backbone and a zesty lime finish, smooth and slightly syrupy from added sugar, served chilled from the fridge or mixed into drinks; sold in a large plastic screw-top jug that fits in a fridge door, often pulled out for quick breakfast pours, party punch, or cocktail mixing. In American grocery culture it sits at the intersection of convenience, tradition, and affordable indulgence.
