Calories in Apple Juice (With Added Ascorbic Acid, Frozen Concentrate)
Frozen apple juice concentrate owes its pale color to added vitamin C intercepting browning reactions before they start.

What makes apple juice so powerful?
When apple tissue is crushed, the enzyme polyphenol oxidase (PPO) comes into contact with phenolic compounds in the cells, catalyzing their oxidation into quinones that polymerize into brown pigments. the same reaction that turns a bitten apple brown. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) added to the concentrate acts as a sacrificial antioxidant: it reduces the quinones back to their colorless phenolic precursors faster than they can polymerize, keeping the juice pale. Once the ascorbic acid is depleted, browning proceeds. The frozen concentrate process removes roughly 80% of the juice's water through vacuum evaporation at low temperatures, then flash-freezes the syrup. This shrinks volume dramatically, cutting shipping weight and storage costs. Reconstituting requires mixing roughly one part concentrate with three parts water.
Antioxidant chemistry
Ascorbic acid reduces quinones back to phenols, halting enzymatic browning at the molecular level.
Water removed
Vacuum evaporation strips about 80% of water, leaving a dense syrup that reconstitutes at roughly 1:3 ratio.
Low fat, high sugar
At 0.37g fat and 41g carbs per 100g, the concentrate is almost pure fruit sugars with minimal lipid content.
💡 When & how to use it
Thaw frozen concentrate in the refrigerator overnight, then dilute with three parts cold water per part concentrate. Use reconstituted juice in marinades for pork or poultry, where its malic acid and fructose help tenderize and caramelize. Add a splash to Greek yogurt or a green smoothie for natural sweetness without refined sugar. Once reconstituted, consume within 5–7 days and keep refrigerated, as the added ascorbic acid gradually degrades upon exposure to air and light.
