What it is
100% Apple Juice is the liquid extracted from apples. It is made by washing, crushing, and pressing apples to separate the juice from the pulp and skin. The juice may then be filtered, pasteurized, and sometimes concentrated before being reconstituted with water.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use 100% apple juice primarily as a beverage ingredient. It provides natural sweetness and apple flavor in products like fruit drinks, smoothies, and baked goods. It can also act as a liquid base or sweetener in sauces and marinades.
Health notes
100% Apple Juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars and some vitamins. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated it. While it contains beneficial compounds found in apples, its high natural sugar content means that excessive consumption can contribute to increased calorie intake.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Apple juice is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
