What it is

Black raspberry juice concentrate is made from black raspberries (Rubus occidentalis). The fruit is pressed to extract juice, which is then concentrated by removing water. This process intensifies the color and flavor of the raspberries.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use black raspberry juice concentrate primarily for its intense color and fruit flavor. It is often added to ice cream, frozen yogurt, jams, jellies, and beverages. It can also be used in baked goods and confectionery.

Health notes

Black raspberry juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of anthocyanins, which are antioxidants found in dark-colored fruits. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated anthocyanins, and research is ongoing regarding their potential health benefits, though evidence is mixed and more studies are needed. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

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