Juice concentrates are, in the simplest terms, fruit juices with nearly all the water taken out of them. Naturally occurring juices contain mostly water, which makes juices harder to transport. By removing the water content through evaporation, fresh juice can be turned into a juice concentrate that can be easily transported and stored.

This concentrate can be used as a flavorant in other food and beverage products, but it is most often mixed with water to recreate delicious, refreshing juice drinks.

The juice concentrate most people are familiar with is orange juice concentrate. With roughly 40% of the global market for concentrates, orange juice is far and away the most popular. Apple juice concentrate is also popular, but these are far from the only fruit juices that can be found in the freezer section at your local grocery store.

The advantages of longer shelf lives, ease of transport, and the concentrated flavor of concentrates can open up a host of opportunities when looking to add natural flavors to food and beverage products.

Orange: The refreshing taste of natural orange juice is a perennial favorite, making it one of the most common juice concentrates available. Renowned for its high vitamin C content, orange juice concentrate is loved for its tangy sweetness that complements breakfasts, beverages, and smoothies.

Grape: The rich and luscious flavor of grape juice concentrate has made it a popular choice for both children and adults. Whether it's the deep purple Concord grapes or the more delicate white grape varieties, grape juice concentrate delivers a burst of natural sweetness and is often enjoyed on its own or as a key ingredient in various recipes.

Mango: With its rich, tropical taste, mango juice concentrate adds an exotic twist to any recipe. The intense sweetness and vibrant flavor of mango juice concentrate make it ideal for both fruity and savory preparations, such as smoothies, chutneys, salsas.

Lemon: Lemon juice concentrate is widely loved for its zesty and tangy flavor, which provides a refreshing and tart burst to any recipe. Whether used in lemonades, beverages, salad dressings, desserts, or as a natural flavor enhancer, lemon juicee concentrate is a versatile addition to any kitchen.

These popular flavors of juice concentrates cater to diverse tastes and preferences, providing a convenient and flavorful way to enjoy the goodness of fruits in any season.
