Watermelon Juice

Watermelon juice is the liquid extracted from watermelon, a large, sweet fruit. It is made by pressing or blending the flesh of the watermelon and then often straining out the pulp. It is naturally sweet and contains vitamins and minerals.

Watermelon juice is used as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer in beverages, desserts, and snacks. It can also add a light, fruity taste and color to products like fruit drinks, smoothies, and candies. Manufacturers use it to provide a fresh, natural fruit profile.

Watermelon juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of hydration and contains vitamins like A and C, as well as antioxidants. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated it, and no specific concerns have been raised regarding its consumption in typical amounts found in food. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming watermelon juice in moderation.
