You may as well get 100% cranberry juice with added sugar to make it palatable.

Caramel (basically boiled sugars) is the only colouring allowed. That's USA and I'm assuming EU is pretty much the same. Well, that's the mystery solved, but should it not say what's in it explicitly on the label? Surely it should.

On the back of the bottle it's written 'mit farbstoff' which means 'with colouring' and below that the number . 4658078-Y7011 and the address Ylldal International, Hamburg. I wonder what the colourant is? It's not written. <br />Maybe the strange code is the clue? Nothing is what it seems these days. In recent news: 70 people shot in Chicago (Obama's adopted city) over the weekend. At least 11 dead. Ah well, life goes on.
