Reed's Premium Ginger Beer
Soft drinks aren't usually healthful, but this small batch brewed ginger beer is a delicious exception. Inspired by an authentic Jamaican recipe and flavored with fresh ginger root (now being studied for its healthful properties), it is sweetened with honey and pineapple juice. No fructose! Naked Juices For about the same price as a tall coffee at Starbucks, you can get a pound (two servings) of antioxidant-rich fruit in these amazing drinks. Combinations include apple, mango, pineapple, kiwi, and banana in Green Machine; pomegranates, blueberries, apple and grapes in the Pomegranate Blueberry; plus many other flavor combinations, Fruit never tasted so good! Our recommendation: Gold Machine. Available in supermarkets. Sambazon Acai Juice Juice of the Amazon Acai (ah-sah-ee) palm berry has an exotic berry flavor with a hint of chocolate and an antioxidant profile twice that of blueberries. Brazilian world-class athletes include the high-fiber, high-protein berries in their training diets. Acai juice is now available across the U.S. This certified organic product is also helping preserve the Amazon rain forest.
