I have used two different kinds of apple juice, and they were a little different, but still good. The only common thing between them was that they said "Ingredients: Apple Juice."

Citric acid is ok, but if it has other preservatives in it don't use it.

Store Brand includes Wal Mart.
The Sam's Choice can be found with 100% juice label...check ingredients though. Also Kroger / King Supers brand and the Safeway Store brands work great.
