HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- When you're looking for a quick refreshment, do you go for a can of soda or something a little more healthy?

Some folks turn down all of that sugar and carbonation for a little juice instead.

But is it necessarily a healthier choice?

Right now, the U.S. is the leader when it comes to consuming sugary drinks -- nearly doubling the consumption of Ireland. Whether to choose a soft drink or fruit juice has been the subject of much debate.

One thing's for sure -- if you've had a long day, sometimes it's hard to stay away from soda for that little pick-me-up.

Just like soda, not all juices are created equal. Some containers at the store say 100 percent fruit juice on the back. It sounds healthy enough, but may not always be the healthiest choice.
