Do you give DC straight juice?

Or do you water it down? My kids get about 1oz of juice per 7oz of water. DD got a juice box in her ToT bag so I let her have it and she didn't like the juice, I guess it was too sweet LOL What do you do?

  • At home, I usually water it down.  She will occasionally have a juice box, and is fine with it.

  • On the occasion she gets it, I let her drink it straight up

  • Peyton gets water with a splash of juice. However, she has no problem drinking a high octane juice box, if given the opportunity.

  • Since he only gets juice every 2 weeks or so, I sometimes let him drink it straight.

    If I think he's going to go on a juice binge, I add about 4 oz of juice to water in his 12 oz sippy.

    This.  My kids are such milk and water drinkers that juice only happens if we happen to eat out somewhere that doesn't have milk.  Or at the grandma's house (so once a week).  And so they get the full strength juice.

  • Yes. He gets one 8oz cup or juice box a day. We give him the juice/vegetable mixture.
  • I've offered straight juice when we are out & milk isn't available, but DS rarely drinks it.  However, DS does love the occassional mini can of low-sodium V8.
