What it is

Cherry juice concentrate is made by removing most of the water from cherry juice. This process intensifies the flavor and color of the cherries. It is commonly produced from tart or sour cherry varieties.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use cherry juice concentrate for its intense fruit flavor, natural color, and sweetness. It is added to a variety of products to provide a cherry taste and appearance, including beverages, yogurts, candies, and baked goods.

Health notes

Cherry juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars and antioxidants. JECFA has evaluated cherry juice concentrate and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence suggests that tart cherry juice may have anti-inflammatory properties and aid in muscle recovery, but more research is needed.
