The Lidl Cranberry Apple Juice Cocktail from Concentrate is a pre-packaged, flavored drink made from cranberry and apple juice concentrates, sweetened with sugar, and enhanced with artificial additives like fumaric acid, malic acid, sodium citrate, and natural flavor.
This product is high in carbohydrates and sugars (29g of total sugars, 26.9g of added sugars), making it more suitable for a dessert or snack than a healthful beverage choice. While it provides some vitamin C from the ascorbic acid, its nutrient density is low, and the high sugar content contributes to potential negative health impacts such as increased calorie intake, blood sugar spikes, and overall reduced nutritional value compared to fresh juices or whole foods.
The product appears to be ultra-processed due to the use of fruit juice concentrates, added sugars, artificial flavors, and synthetic additives like fumaric acid and malic acid. These ingredients suggest that the product has undergone significant processing to extend shelf life and enhance flavor, making it less aligned with minimally processed or whole foods.
If looking for a healthier alternative, consider choosing 100% pure cranberry or apple juice without added sugars or artificial flavors, as these options provide more nutrients and fewer added sugars.
