Density 49 · -32 vs Fruits & juices median

Raspberry juice concentrate scores 49 of 100, Fair band, placing it at rank 42 of 60 in Fruits & juices, well below the category median of 81. It's excellent across the board on vitamin C (42% DV), magnesium (27% DV), and potassium (25% DV), a concentrated dose of what raspberries carry in dilute form.

This is meant to be diluted with water or blended into smoothies and sauces rather than drunk straight, since concentrating the fruit also concentrates its sugar to a high 38.2 grams per 100 grams. That sugar load is the honest tradeoff for the vitamin and mineral density here; whole watermelon or nectarines are higher-scoring fruit options for those who'd rather eat the fruit than drink its concentrate.
