What You Should Know

You'd spot this cherry limeade in the refrigerated drinks aisle or cooler, grabbed for a sunny picnic, backyard BBQ, or as a nostalgic treat on a hot day. It gives a bright, nostalgic and indulgent vibe—like a fountain soda remake—thanks to its very sweet flavor profile. The short ingredient list hides industrial processing (added cane sugar, juice concentrate, and "natural flavor") that yields a smooth, shelf-stable, flavor-engineered beverage consistent with ultra-processed products.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Contains added sugar, fruit juice concentrate, and 'natural flavor'—components and manufacturing typical of NOVA group 4; the product is flavor-formulated and processed for stability and palatability rather than being a minimally processed whole food.

Common Questions about Cherry Limeade, 12 FZ

Defining 'healthy' can be a bit of a slippery slope, right? Cherry Limeade is fun and refreshing, but it does pack in 43 grams of sugar per serving, which is high compared to many other drinks. If you’re looking for a treat rather than an everyday beverage, this could fit the bill!
