I just did a quick google search and found that you can buy it online for under $4 (not including shipping). Otherwise, I found San Luis Mexican Grocery in Crestwood. Maybe they may carry it.

Yum...You could have also made your post in the "Favorite Childhood Food Memories" thread...I loved those orange-flavored Hostess cupcakes back in the day...

I still love them, especially after they've been in the freezer for a few minutes.

Although not technically a fruit juice, I been into Aloe Vera juice lately. It can be found at Chinese stores and has a light, grapey flavor.
Ronnie, you might wanna give it a try...

Yes, they do. The Basa Signature Martini. Michael Ton is the person who turned me on to the stuff.

Becky, I love the texture of the apple nectar. We would buy them and put them in a small freezer ... they would last all day and were so delicious. I've had the mango and peach and like both of them. The apple, however, is still my very favorite. It totally spoiled me on drinking apple "juice". Drinking one takes me back to my travels and my friends ...

As for bottled, anything from Northland. Even their cranberry juice actually tastes like cranberries, and not the cranberry-flavored pear/white grape juice sold by other companies.

As for OJ, the Simply Orange brand seems to be the closest to hand-juiced oranges, IMHO.

Otherwise, it's hard to beat anything manually squeezed from its source fruit/vegetable.

If I had the room I'd definitely buy a juicer, but alas, my small kitchen won't allow it.

As a kid I always liked Tropicana Twister Orange/Cranberry, only to grow up and figure out that Madras' are much better with good vodka. I used to get V8 Splash Strawberry-Kiwi, pretty good stuff.
