One part SK-juice to one part Vodka makes a great shooter - the taste of alcohol is completely subsumed by the overpowering saltiness and cabbage stench.YobMod 14:46, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

How is it used/consumed? Badagnani (talk) 06:40, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Apparently, there are people who actually drink it. —Angr 08:15, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Changes

Hey, I deleted the part about Kraut juice having been invented in the US because I believe as it is nothing but the fluid that remains when curing Sauerkraut, no one actually had to "invent" it. And since it has been around in Germany for (at least) many decades, it is probably difficult to determine who was the first to sell it in bottles/cans. So we should leave that aspect out of the article. Cheers, Krankman (talk) 16:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

It comes in paper cartons in Germany, and i've never met anyone under the age of 50 that drinks it (it is regarded similar to prune juice), so it certainly has a long history, if not necessarily a comercial one. A few Hausfrauen still make their own Sauerkraut, so automatically make home made Kraut juice.YobMod 14:46, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

I am well under 50 and I loved to drink it as it is the most refreshing drink I know - maybe it even has a stronger wakeup call than a mug of coffee. Strangely, in Germany this drink, which was widely available in food shops including discounters, has disappeared from the market about a year ago. Maybe it is still available in health food stores - with a higher price tag.
