What it is

Juice concentrate is made by removing most of the water from fruit or vegetable juice. This process intensifies the flavor and color of the juice, making it easier to transport and store. It is often reconstituted by adding water back to the concentrate.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use juice concentrate as a natural sweetener, flavor enhancer, and coloring agent in a wide variety of foods and beverages. It is commonly found in fruit juices, fruit drinks, candies, baked goods, and dairy products.

Health notes

Juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of natural sugars and can contribute to the overall sugar content of a food product. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated juice concentrates and their components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Juice concentrate is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
