Product Introduction
Elderberry juice concentrate is derived from the berries of the elder tree, known scientifically as Sambucus nigra. This natural product is rich in anthocyanins, which give it a characteristic deep purple color and contribute to its potential health benefits. Traditionally, elderberries have been utilized in folk medicine for their immune-boosting properties. The juice concentrate provides a concentrated source of nutrients, making it a popular choice for various applications, from health supplements to flavoring agents in food and beverages.
Production Process
The production process for elderberry juice concentrate begins with the careful selection of ripe elderberries. Once harvested, the berries undergo a washing process to remove impurities. They are then processed to extract the juice, which is subsequently heated to concentrate the flavors and nutrients while reducing water content. This concentration process not only enhances the berry’s natural sweetness but also preserves its beneficial compounds. Finally, the juice is cooled and filtered before being packaged for distribution.
