I do like to make my own food and drink for my baby. However, I do buy some preprepared food and drink from supermarket for occasions when I'm short on time.

I always choose products made by Hipp who have been making baby products for over 50 years and use only organic ingredients.

This fruit juice drink is aimed at babies from 4 months old and over to round off mealtimes.

This drink is sold by all supermarkets and comes in a 500ml glass bottle as pictured above.

The juice is a blend of various fruits and can be given to the baby undiluted, although some people choose to dilute it with water to reduce the natural sugar content.

The juice is very sweet tasting, perhaps even a little sickly, but my baby seems to love it.

It can be purchased for around one pound fifty pence, so in that respect, is more expensive than making your own juice or indeed, just giving them water.
