FruitFast Tart Cherry Juice Concentrate is crafted from 100%
Montmorency cherries (Prunus cerasus), naturally harvested and gently
processed into a premium unsweetened concentrate. No sugar. No fillers.
No preservatives. Just pure tart cherry juice concentrate in a cold-filled,
mix-to-taste format that lets you control strength and sweetness.
Known for their vibrant ruby-red color and bold tart character, Montmorency
cherries contain naturally occurring plant pigments and polyphenols,
including anthocyanins and flavonoids. These compounds contribute to
tart cherries’ distinctive flavor, intense color, and deep fruit signature
that’s ideal for beverages, smoothies, sauces, or culinary blends.
Because this concentrate is unsweetened and single-ingredient, you can
customize dilution to taste — stronger and more robust, or lighter and
more refreshing. Whether you’re mixing a refreshing pitcher of cherry
juice or layering it into smoothies, cocktails, mocktails, or culinary
sauces, you’re starting with pure cherry essence.

What Does 68° Brix Mean?
Brix is a measurement of dissolved natural fruit solids. At 68° Brix, this tart cherry concentrate
contains a high percentage of naturally occurring fruit components with much of the water removed.
This higher concentration creates a thicker texture, deeper color, and bold tart flavor.
It also explains why the product does not freeze solid in a household freezer — high soluble
solids naturally lower the freezing point.
Simply mix to your preferred strength. Light, classic, or bold — you control the intensity.
