Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Sorrel Ginger Flavored Drink scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Acacia Gum, Ester Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Juices, this product is more processed than about 75% of the 9,905 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
