What it is

Acerola juice concentrate is made from the juice of acerola cherries, a small, tart fruit native to the Americas. The juice is concentrated by removing water, resulting in a more potent liquid that is easier to transport and store. It is a rich source of vitamin C.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use acerola juice concentrate primarily as a natural source of vitamin C and as a flavoring agent. Its tartness can also contribute to the overall flavor profile of beverages and other food products. It is commonly found in fruit juices, nectars, and flavored beverages.

Health notes

Acerola juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a natural source of vitamin C, which is an essential nutrient. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated acerola and found it to have no safety concerns. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts found in food.

Allergen info

Acerola juice concentrate is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
