Fruit Juice Cocktail from Concentrate
What it is
This is a beverage made from fruit juice that has been concentrated and then reconstituted with water. It often contains a blend of different fruit flavors to create a balanced taste. The process of concentrating the juice removes water, making it easier to transport and store. When water is added back, it results in a drink that is ready for consumption.
