I Googled "blackcurrant juice" and found something
called Pomegreat whose ingredients are
Pomegranate juice concentrate, blackcurrant juice
concentrate and red grape juice concentrate:

Not all blackcurrant juice, but it sounds good, if
the concentration preserves the good stuff.  The
Jarrow Formulas label gives it some credibility.

Ribena is generally sold in the UK as a sugary
blackcurrant drink, but Googling
"blackcurrant juice" ribena "no added sugar" netted
Ribena No Added Sugar Concentrate

CurrantC is 37% blackcurrant juice:  "The juice is
made from concentrate with filtered water, and pure
cane sugar is added to offset the tartness."  This
is the same thing I figure is going on with
cranberry juice.

Googling '"cranberry juice" "no sugar added"' gives a
lot more hits, as I expected.  That's all the research
I feel like doing right now.  Enjoy.

Live long and prosper,
Kennita
