The category fruit juices follows the EU regulation in requiring that its products should contain at least 99% of (fruit) juice.

Subcategories

There are multiple subcategories defined for this category. This can be by type of fruit or production method.

Single fruit type subcategories

These products contain the juice of a single fruit:

Not all fruits produce enough juice to make a commercially viable fruit juice. These might be mixed with other fruits.

Multifruit subcategories

Products that contain more than 99% juice from two or more fruits can be found under Multifruit juices.

(there are quite a few products which use two fruits. Creating a category for each possible combination seems excessive. Experimenting with FruitX-based juices)

Production subcategories

Storage subcategories

  • Refrigerated fruit juices for products that have been flash pasteurised (and not?) and need to be stored in the refrigerated before usage.
