Juice Box & Pouch Swaps

Tasty, colorful drinks without the food dye fallout—just real fruit and fun.​

Juice boxes are a lunchbox staple, but many popular picks are hiding more than fruit. Options like Hawaiian Punch, SunnyD, and Kool-Aid Bursts often use Red 40, Blue 1, and Yellow 5 to make their colors pop. If your kids love sipping something sweet, these dye-free juice boxes and pouches bring the fun flavors—without turning their tongues neon.
