Percentage Juice (US)Updated 2 hours ago
What does "Contains X% Juice" on US labels mean?
This statement indicates the percentage of real fruit or vegetable juice in each Bartesian cocktail mix. Our carefully crafted cocktail capsules use premium juice ingredients to deliver an authentic cocktail experience.
If the capsule contains X% juice, what is the rest made of?
Every Bartesian cocktail capsule is expertly formulated with high-quality ingredients to ensure a perfectly balanced drink. In addition to juice concentrates, our mixes may include natural flavors, sweeteners, and essential ingredients that enhance taste and maintain freshness - never anything that compromises quality. You can always reference the ingredient list for full details for each of our cocktail varieties.
Why are some cocktail mixes labeled “Contains 100% Juice” when they contain other ingredients?
Bartesian uses high-quality juice concentrates to capture the fruit flavors of exceptional craft cocktails. The FDA requires that we calculate the % juice using standard published measurements for each juice concentrate ingredient, with the maximum percentage of juice being 100%. A “Contains 100% Juice” statement means that the real juice ingredients are still in a concentrated form, even with the additional ingredients.
Does the juice percentage affect the product’s sweetness?
Not necessarily. Each Bartesian cocktail mix is expertly crafted to achieve the perfect balance of flavors, whether that means embracing the natural sweetness of certain juices or adding tart elements to create the complexity of a well-mixed cocktail.
Why do some cocktail mixes have very little juice in them?
Just like handcrafted cocktails from a top-tier bar, each Bartesian recipe is unique. Some classic cocktails rely heavily on juices, while others highlight botanical extracts, bitters, or other flavorful ingredients. Our mixes are carefully blended to ensure each drink stays true to its signature taste.
Does a lower juice percentage mean the product has artificial ingredients?
Not at all. Bartesian is committed to authentic, premium ingredients. We use real juices, natural flavors, and botanical extracts while avoiding artificial flavors, artificial colors, fructose, and corn syrups. Every sip is designed to deliver an upscale, bar-quality experience.
