Mixed Berry Juice Drinks

Mixed berry juice drinks are flavoured beverages that combine berry juice with water, sweeteners, and sometimes other fruit juices to create a lighter, sweeter drink than pure juice. They typically contain a modest percentage of actual fruit juice, with the balance made up of water, sugar or other sweeteners, and flavourings.

These drinks are popular with families and are commonly found in the long-life juice aisle of Australian supermarkets. They offer a berry flavour that’s more approachable and less tart than straight berry juice, making them a common lunchbox inclusion.

They’re best served chilled and are a convenient ready-to-drink option, though they shouldn’t be confused with 100% fruit juices given their lower juice content and added sweeteners.

How it's made

Mixed berries are pressed or juiced to extract their liquid, which is then blended with water and sweeteners to achieve the desired flavour balance and consistency. The drink is pasteurised for shelf stability, then packaged in bottles or cartons. The juice content is typically diluted significantly, with added sugars or sweeteners rounding out the flavour.
