Berry juice is the liquid extracted from various small fruits, typically red, blue, black, or purple in color, commonly known as berries. These fruits include blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, currants, among others. The resulting juice is valued in cooking for its sweet and tangy flavor, as well as its intense vibrant color, which adds both aroma and visual appeal to a wide variety of recipes, from desserts to sauces and beverages.
The origin of berry juice dates back to temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, where these fruits grow wild or cultivated. Today, its production extends worldwide, adapting to different climates and varieties.
From a nutritional standpoint, berry juice is rich in antioxidants, particularly vitamin C, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, which help combat oxidative stress and provide benefits for cardiovascular health and the immune system. Additionally, its fiber content (when the juice is pressed unfiltered) and minerals like potassium make it a healthy addition to any culinary preparation.
In various Latin American countries, berry juice may be called by different names depending on the fruit used or the region, though common terms include red fruit juice, blackberry juice, blueberry juice, or simply forest fruit juice. These names reflect the diversity of berries used and their versatility in local cuisine.
