I agree. Since discovering Paleo, I have gotten so I almost never drink
straight juice. It is just too sweet. I always blend frozen fruit into my
apple juice and drink smoothies. Still not the way a h/g would have had it
but at least I get a lot of fiber and most of the nutrition of the berries.
I like to make it so thick that I need to eat it with a spoon.
