Coconut Water: An Ingredient that Lowers Overall Calories in 100% Juice Blends

Coconut water imparts minimal flavor and color, preserving the original taste and appearance of your product. This is particularly beneficial when working with high °Brix juices like grape or apple. For example, replacing a 100% apple juice formula with a blend of 50% single-strength coconut water and 50% single-strength apple juice reduces the calorie content by 35%. An 8 fl. oz. serving's caloric load drops from about 120 calories to around 78 calories, while still maintaining its 100% juice status.

As consumers become more health-conscious, they seek beverages with better nutritional value. Coconut water is an ideal solution, offering high electrolyte content and maintaining a 100% juice claim, ensuring your consumers feel hydrated and satisfied. Additionally, the growing demand for lower-calorie, low-sugar options make coconut water an attractive ingredient for innovative product development.

Refer to the table below to see how incorporating 50% coconut water reduces calorie content in various juice blends. Embrace the benefits of coconut water to create healthier, refreshing beverages that meet consumer expectations.
