What it is

Reconstituted apple juice is made by adding water back to concentrated apple juice. Apple juice concentrate is produced by removing water from fresh apple juice, which makes it easier to store and transport. The process intensifies the apple flavor and color.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use reconstituted apple juice as a sweetener and flavor enhancer in beverages like fruit juices, teas, and flavored waters. It provides a natural apple taste and sweetness without needing to add separate sugar or artificial flavors.

Health notes

Reconstituted apple juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars and some vitamins, but also contains calories. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated apple juice and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Apple juice is derived from fruit and does not contain gluten.
