What it is

Clarified watermelon juice concentrate is made by removing water from watermelon juice. This process concentrates the natural sugars, flavors, and colors of the watermelon. The resulting liquid is typically clear and syrupy.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use it as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer, adding a mild watermelon taste. It is often found in beverages like sports drinks, powdered drink mixes, and other flavored drinks where a fruity note is desired.

Health notes

In the US, clarified watermelon juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of natural sugars, and its consumption contributes to overall sugar intake. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar fruit-derived ingredients. Evidence regarding specific health effects at typical intake levels is generally tied to the sugar content.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. It is derived from watermelon, which is a fruit.
