  • Drinking solely prune juice could be a big struggle. Try to blend it with apple or orange juice. A little of the taste will remain but it is no longer bad at all. The apple and orange taste mix makes it all yummy and drinkable. You can experiment with other fruits that you like. You may hit a perfect blend!
  • Put lots of ice in your prune juice. The ice would make the juice less thick and drink it cold would make it better.
  • Add a little more twist. Make your prune juice a “Prune Juice Smoothie”. Kids love smoothies. Look for a recipe that suits your taste.
  • Sweeteners do their magic. What would be your preference? Prune is naturally sweet but if adding more sweet with it works, try sugar or honey. That’s what I do when drinking a bad tasting medicine. How about eating chocolates and alternate it with drinking the juice?

Here at Healthy with Danny from San Jose, CA and Beyond, we're all about responsibly enjoying, brewing, sharing and promoting delicious craft beers and the Independent craft breweries and homebrewers that brew them. We're about community, diversity, inclusion and celebrating what makes craft beer awesome. And we're about education, learning and advocacy. Maybe converting too ;) Generally being responsible, fun loving and positive. It's also about transparency, being honest, genuine, authentic and true.

But when shit goes down and it's downright wrong. When craft beer and everything that makes it great is co-opted by Global entities in the name of trying to still look relevant and trying to be hip, I always believe in calling BS out, telling it like it is, holding things to account and boycotting. Especially when it comes to jackin' brands of non-willing participants in greasy Megacorporate schemes. It creates division too. It's not cool.
No control/no monitoring/no accountability. Honestly, it upsets me.

I will always be honest and true, especially when the evidence is there.

Cheers !
