1. SCOPE
This standard applies to all fruit juice and fruit nectars as defined in Section 2.1 below.
2. DESCRIPTION
2.1 PRODUCT DEFINITION
2.1.1 Fruit Juice
Fruit juice is the unfermented but fermentable liquid obtained as follows:
2.1.1.1 Fruit juice directly expressed by mechanical extraction processes.
2.1.1.2 Fruit juice from concentrate by reconstituting concentrated fruit juice defined in Section 2.1.2 with potable water that meets the criteria described in Section 3.1.1(a) (iii).
2.1.1.3
a) The juice is obtained from the edible part of sound, appropriately mature and fresh fruit or fruit maintained in fresh condition by physical means and/or by treatments applied in accordance with the provisions of the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
b) The juice may be cloudy or clear and must have the essential characteristics typical of the juice of the fruit from which it comes..
[c) A single juice is obtained from one kind of fruit. Two or more kinds of juices may be mixed together. Juice may have added or restored aromatic substances, volatile flavour components, pulp and cells, all of which must be recovered from the same kinds of fruits and be obtained by physical means.]
2.1.2 Concentrated Fruit Juice
Concentrated fruit juice is the product that complies with the definition given in Section 2.1.1 above, except water has been physically removed (from such juice) in a given amount [sufficient to increase the Brix level by 50% or more]. In the production of juice that is to be concentrated [adequate technological][6] [physical][7] processes are used and may [include] [8] [be combined with][9] simultaneous diffusion of the pulp cells or fruit pulp by water, provided that the water extracted juice is added in-line to the primary juice, before the concentration procedure
Two or more kinds of fruit juice concentrates may be mixed together. Fruit juice concentrates may have added or restored aromatic substances, volatile flavour components, pulp and cells, all of which must be recovered from the same kinds of fruits and be obtained by physical means.
2.1.3 Fruit Nectar
Nectar is the unfermented but fermentable product, obtained by adding water with or without the addition of sugars as defined in the Codex Standard for Sugars (CX-STAN 212-1999), other carbohydrate sweeteners such as honey and/or other sweeteners as described in Section 4.5, to products defined in Sections 2.1.1 and 2.1.2, or to fruit purée or concentrated fruit purée or to a mixture of those products.
That product moreover must meet the requirements defined in Section 3.1.1(c).
2.1.4 Fruit Purée
Fruit purée is the unfermented but fermentable product obtained by appropriate processes (eg sieving, grinding, milling) the edible part of the whole or peeled fruit without removing the juice. The fruit must be sound, appropriately mature and fresh fruit or preserved by physical means or by treatment applied in accordance with the provisions of the Codex Alimentarius Commission. Concentrated fruit purée may be obtained by the physical removal of water of the fruit purée.
2.2 SPECIES
The species indicated as the botanical name in Section 3.1.1(b) shall be used in the preparation of juices and nectars bearing the food name for the applicable fruit. For fruits not included in Section 3.1.1(b), the correct botanical or common name shall apply.
3. ESSENTIAL COMPOSITION AND QUALITY FACTORS
3.1 COMPOSITION
3.1.1 Basic Ingredients
(a) Soluble Solids as follows:
i. For fruit juices not from concentrate offered for consumption as such, the soluble solids content of the single strength juice shall not be modified and must be in accordance with the minimum Brix level established in Section 3.1.1(b).(b) Minimum Brix level for reconstituted juice from concentrate and single strength juice not from concentrate.ii. The preparation of fruit juice offered for direct consumption that requires reconstitution of concentrated juices must be in accordance with the minimum Brix level established in Section 3.1.1 (b), exclusive of the solids of any added optional ingredients and additives. If there is no Brix level specified, in the table, minimum Brix shall be calculated on the basis of the soluble solids content of the single strength, unconcentrated juice used to produce such concentrated juice.
iii. For reconstituted juice from concentrate, potable water used in reconstitution shall, at a minimum, meet Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality of the World Health Organization (Volumes 1 and 2, 2nd Edition)
