Celebration of Juice

KitanJi and friends love juice. And Jesus.

Much like Buster Bluth from Arrested Development.

So we will incorporate juice into our celebration of in(ter)dependence! Now the juice search may begin... So here are some possibilities.

1. LORINA


Lorina lemonade
  • Pro: Can order from Trader Joes for $2.99 per bottle (which I estimate as 1 bottle per 4 people, about $250-300 total); I think we can order nicer bottles with more variety from Whole Foods for $4.99 per bottle ($400-450)... We could also get other non-Lorina juices if we go the Trader Joe's route...
  • Con: Trader Joe's only has Red and White colors... no blue except for blueberry cider which I find beastly. But I supposed we can get blue straws.
2. San Pellegrino from Amazon.com (not as cheap as 99 cents store where you can get them 3 for 99 cents!)

San Pellegrino Orange, 11.15 Ounce Cans (Pack of 24)
  • Pro: Can order from Amazon.com and get credit card points... 27.64 per 24 pack, 12 cases would be around $335. We can recycle the cans. Cute blue color. TASTY!!! Dave and I really do love orange San Pellegrino.
  • Con: We have bought them cheaper from 99 cents stores and it would be sad to pay more. Also, cans... hm...
3. Dry Soda

Juniper Berry DRY Soda, 12pkLemongrass DRY Soda. 12pk
  • Pro: My favorite soda ever!
  • Con: Expensive. Not everyone loves it like I do... My favorite flavor (lemongrass) is not green (aka not red, white, blue)...
4. My secret wish... GOKURI!!!

Gokuri Miracle of Grapefruit by xiaming.
  • Pro: It would be the miracle of grapefruit at our wedding. Meaningful to KitanJi. Japanese representation!
  • Con: Can't seem to find this in bulk unless we have a distributor's license or something. BOO...
Ah, the pitfalls of juice selection. I wish I knew someone who owned a restaurant or something!
