Organic Dark Cherry Juice Concentrate

Organic dark cherry juice concentrate is made from dark cherries grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The juice is extracted from the cherries and then concentrated by removing water, resulting in a thicker, more intense product.

Manufacturers use it to add natural cherry flavor and color to foods. It is often found in candies, fruit snacks, and beverages where a strong fruit taste is desired.

Organic dark cherry juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring and coloring agent. Tart cherry juice, from which concentrate is derived, has been studied for its potential anti-inflammatory properties and benefits for muscle recovery. However, like all fruit juices, it contains natural sugars, and excessive consumption should be avoided as part of a balanced diet. JECFA has evaluated cherry juice and its derivatives.
