Hi all,

I'm looking for either 100% cranberry juice ( not ocean spray "tail" or 100% juice blend) or pomegrante juice in Seoul. Does anyone have any info on these? It seems to me that pomegrante juice was enjoying a little "moment' in Korea, and I wondered if anyone might have a link to buy some or have seen some somewhere? Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

I've bought both at Costco...each 100% juice.

If Costco isn't an option for you, try some of the bigger pharmacies. I've seen pomegranate juice for sale, although I'm not sure if it was extract, or if anything had been added. Good luck.

Go to places that sell Ginseng. They sell pomegranate juice.

you can get pomegranite wine/liquor at the local supermarket. blech!
So syrupy you could put it on pancakes.

Yeah.

Anyway, actual pomegranate JUICE is available at Costco in boxes of three one-liter bottles for about 39,000 won.

The stuff Casey's Moon and Tzechuk are talking about is most likely pomegranate syrup mixed with corn syrup and other crap.

I buy pomegranate juice at the local corner stores! And it's the real thing!

Maybe it's a regional difference. Down here the juice is popular.

I couldn't find either on my last tour in SK. So, on my second tour, I brought cranberry capsules from home. You take one with a glass of water. Has the same benefits. Maybe you could order online and have them shipped.
