What it is

Concentrated juices are made by removing most of the water from fruit or vegetable juice. This process intensifies the natural flavor and color of the original fruit or vegetable. The resulting liquid is thicker and sweeter than the original juice.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use concentrated juices to add natural fruit or vegetable flavor, sweetness, and color to a variety of products. They are commonly found in beverages like fruit punches and nectars, as well as in ice cream, frozen yogurt, and candy.

Health notes

Concentrated juices are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of natural sugars and can contribute to overall calorie intake. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar fruit-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming concentrated juices at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Concentrated juices are derived from fruits or vegetables and do not typically contain major allergens or gluten.
