What Is Aronia Juice? Flavor, Uses & Fruit Compounds

Aronia Buying & Fruit Guide

Aronia juice is made from aronia berries, also called chokeberries. The berries are naturally dark purple and are known for a tart, dry and noticeably astringent flavor.

Aronia is often blended with sweeter fruits because its flavor is more intense and tannic than common grape or berry juices.
