I like making my own. One thing making my own cranberry water from fresh cranberries taught me is what proper cranberry water should look like. It should be faintly red or pink looking. The unsweetened juices are way too concentrated to take 8 ounces and make 64 ounces of cranberry water. To make the proper concentration it's more like 3-4 ounces of juice to make 64 ounces. I think that's why some people are still getting cravings even after they cut out the fruits on FFP.
