JUICE – NECTAR – JUICE DRINK

Why aren’t all packaged juices pure juices? The reason is that not every fruit or berry can be used to make pure juice. Some fruits are too acidic or have an overly intense flavour when made into pure 100% juice, which means that they must be diluted or combined with other fruits and vegetables.

In addition to pure juice, consumers can also find nectars, juice drinks and soft drinks containing juice on store shelves. These drinks contain less juice than pure juice and are therefore also less healthy. It’s permitted to add water, sugars, sweeteners and citric acid to them.

 

Juice, nectar, juice drink… What is the difference?
