If you love the taste of Sunny D but wish it were made with more than just 5 percent real fruit juice, this is the recipe for you. Rustle up some frozen juice concentrates and let them thaw out before measuring. Since tangerine juice concentrate is tough to find on its own, I designed my Sunny Delight copycat recipe with the orange/tangerine blend concentrate from Minute Maid.

My kid couldn't tell the difference, except it wasn't as pasty, he said. It's good. Then I let him make the next batch. Now we've decided to buy enough concentrates to make a frozen concentrates in tupperwares. That way the kids can just add water and corn syrup whenever we're running low. Great recipe.
