Cranberry Creativity…Coasting to a Town Near You!

LAKEVILLE-MIDDLEBORO, Mass., July 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- This summer the cranberry experts at Ocean Spray will DELIVER on taste in a whole new way by making ordinary summer fare sizzle with the bold, tart, sweet, savory, fresh, crisp, uniquely healthy and refreshing cranberry, brought to you in a brand new food truck!  Now that's a mouthful!

With a truckload of cranberry and culinary know-how, this won't be another cookie cutter operation.  Without a muffin in the mix or a nod to traditional holiday favorites, the treats on this truck will expand your horizons with tastes from Thai to the tropics. Buckle up and get ready to take your taste buds on a tour!

"The kitchen on wheels concept provides the perfect vehicle to deliver on two hot trends," said Kevin Penwell, VP North American Sales at Ocean Spray. "The first is the whole food truck phenomenon—three million strong; and the second is the consumers' desire for innovative, fresh-cooked meals on the go." 

Local renowned Chef Kevin Millonzi of Millzoni's Catering in Rhode Island is the master of the moveable feast featuring a world of offerings, from fish tacos with jalapeno and cranberry slaw to shish kabobs with balsamic cranberry marinated beef to Korean chili bowls with cranberry kimchi slaw. The full menu includes small bites, salads, noodle bowls, and sandwiches, all ranging from $3 to $9.  Drink it all in with your favorite Ocean Spray beverages or try refreshing custom beverages like Cranberry Mango Madness or Cape Cod Bay Breeze.

The Ocean Spray Food Truck kicked off its maiden voyage on June 1 and will run through September 10 making stops along the south coast at festivals and hotspots in Providence and Newport, R.I. and Cape Cod, Mass. Media inquiring about specifics stops on the tour can contact Sharon Newcomb at Ocean Spray at [email protected].
