Grape Juice Drink (Canned) (1 Cup (8 Fl Oz))

Choose water, unsweetened sparkling water, or an unsweetened tea instead of canned grape juice drink whenever possible.

If you do drink it, use a small serving and dilute it with water or ice to reduce the amount of sugar consumed at one time.

Have it with a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach; include protein and fiber such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, nuts, or non-starchy vegetables.

Avoid pairing it with other sweet drinks, desserts, refined breads, or sugary snacks in the same sitting.

Check the label and choose versions with no added sugar and the lowest total sugar per serving; whole grapes in a modest portion are often a better alternative.

If you use glucose-lowering medication or have repeated concerning readings, discuss drink choices and timing with your clinician.
