But I do find it quite funny that the onboard announcements say they will be serving blueberry juice but when you look at the carton they pour it from, one side is in english and it says bilberry juice.

I believe the (current) correct translation is Bilberry due to the name-overlap, but that is a construct to resolve the name conflict.
They are and have always been called "Blue" in local languages like Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Lithuanian and Scotts. (While they are called "Black" in languages like Finnish, Estonian, Latvian and Russian - and here is another name conflict as black-berries in English are called "Bear-berries" in Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish)

You can see the Marli logo on the side of pack.
interesting move, assuming this is just relabeling, so they want to up their brand game with visible nordic kitchen -ware instead of allemans supermarket shelf stuff

AY is "testing" blueberry-juice-less flights. Flew HEL-ARN-HEL today, all they had was water, coffee and tea both ways. FA confirmed this was a "test".
