where to get strawberry nectar and rasberry juice to make smoothies?

I’ve seen some great smoothie recipes, but they call for strawberry nectar and/or rasberry juice. Where can I find these?

    It’s easy to make your own. Buy the berries, remove any bad places from the fruit (especially speaking of the strawberries here), rinse the fruit really well with water, and then freeze the fruit completely. After the fruit has been frozen, thaw it out in a bowl. Remove the juice from the rest of the thawed fruit by straining it through a jelly bag (if you can find jelly bags), or cheesecloth, or coffee filters (be careful not to tear the filters during straining).

    The juice spoils easily, so either only make it as you need it, or refreeze the juice by itself. If you choose to refreeze the juice, be careful what you freeze it in, since the juice will swell like ice, braking glass and many other inflexible containers. You might consider freezing the juice as "juice cubes", using an ice cube tray, and then storing the cubes in an airtight container or freezer bags. The frozen juice will be ok for 8 – 12 months, provided you keep it frozen.

    Local health stores and various supermarkets (i.e., Harris Teeter, Whole Foods)

    Try a European style deli or the imported foods section of your supermarket.
    Some health food stores or bulk food stores may carry them.
    Also look in bar supplies at liquor stores, if old enough.
