I have kids and kids love juice (and sweet things). You cannot gauge how much real sugar (it's usually WAY too much) is in store bought stuff so I encourage my girls to make their own drinks. Taking part in preparing their own meals or beverages allows them to have a relationship with what
they choose. It also allows them to learn how fruits and veggies become smoothies or juices. I love watching their faces and the sense of pride they own as they make their own drinks. Though I am the Juicing Queen, my girls absolutely love this one after school.
