For years I bought my fruit juices in half gallon plastic containers. The boys drink them in no time at all, so we'd go through 4-5 of them a week. I'd say an average cost of approximately $2.50/half gallon. In addition to the cost, that's a lot of plastic in the recycling bin.
I rediscovered frozen concentrated juices. Read the labels, some contain high fructose corn syrup, but many do not. I found orange juice, grape, and apple. In addition to less plastic, they are much less expensive. I bought this name brand grape juice at Target for $1.37, so it's a great deal!
Lastly, most juices are far too sweet. I add an additional can of water when mixing. Less sugar and it goes farther.
So, less plastic in our precious environment, less money, and less sugar. LOVE IT!
Have a wonderful weekend~
