We use a par­tic­u­larly high-qual­ity and in­tensely flavoured el­der­berry va­ri­ety called Haschberg for Biotta El­der­berry. At sum­mer’s end the black berries are har­vested by hand. They are then pressed in our Lake Con­stance fac­tory to pro­duce a nat­ural juice with no ar­ti­fi­cial ad­di­tives or added sugar. Our gen­tle pro­duc­tion meth­ods mean the juice has a de­li­cious and mildly fruity taste.

For some time now, we have been ad­just­ing the calo­rie and nat­ural fruc­tose con­tent of our juice recipes. Al­though the nat­ural sugar in fruit and veg­eta­bles is not the same as nor­mal gran­u­lated sugar, our con­sumers are in­creas­ingly con­scious of the role of sugar in their di­ets. Biotta has recog­nised this and is mak­ing ap­pro­pri­ate changes as a re­sult. In this way, we can en­sure that our pop­u­lar clas­sics con­tinue to ap­peal to con­sumers, both in terms of taste and nu­tri­tional value.

Our bod­ies can process the nat­ural fruc­tose from fruit and veg­eta­bles bet­ter than gran­u­lated sugar or ar­ti­fi­cial fruc­tose. This is be­cause of the phy­tonu­tri­ents and di­etary fi­bre that fruit and fruit juices con­tain. Ar­ti­fi­cial fruc­tose in par­tic­u­lar, which is of­ten made from ge­net­i­cally mod­i­fied maize, is un­healthy and can­not be com­pared with nat­u­rally oc­cur­ring fruc­tose. Soft drinks, yo­ghurts and break­fast ce­re­als fre­quently con­tain large quan­ti­ties of ar­ti­fi­cial fruc­tose. We al­ways process the whole fruit or veg­etable for our juice, so you ben­e­fit from nu­mer­ous vi­t­a­mins and nu­tri­ents.
