Cranberry cocktail is probably what is meant by cranberry juice here since it is in the same quantity meant for pomegranate juice which is very sweet.

I saw this in my daughter's High Five (Highlights Jr.) magazine. She loves turning the lemonade pink! We use 3/4 of a cup instead of a full cup of cranberry juice simply because she likes it at that particular shade of pink. It is deliciously tart, not overly sweet. I have cheated once or twice and used a bottle Simply Lemonade with some cranberry juice, but that isn't as fun.

I gave this recipe 4 stars. My family really liked this recipe. I bought some cranberry juice and for the life of me couldn't figure out why. So when I found this recipe I decided to try it. When I made this recipe I used Splenda in place of the sugar. I started with 1/2 a cup but for my taste I thought it needed the full 1 cup. I also thought this was a bit to tart for me so I added a extra 1/2 cup of cranberry juice. Overall this was very good and we will have this again. Thanks for posting a very good recipe!

Very nice pink lemonade. I used pomegranate juice, but think I will use cranberry next time, then a combo juice. As you can tell, we will be making this again. Thnx for posting, Jollymae.

Wonderful pink lemonade! I used cranberry pomegranate juice and bottled lemon juice. The right amount of tart and sweet and like muffin goddess added the flavor didnt water down with the ice cubes. Another great recipe that I will be making again! Made and reviewed for the Think Pink - Breast Awareness Tag Game.
