Nectar,
from Latin word nektar or "drink of the gods" is
defined as a beverage of fruit juice and pulp. Fruit nectars are
very popular in Italy and throughout Europe. They have a much higher
fruit content since they are made with fruit puree. Most European
nectars are very thick and are often diluted with water, while bionaturæ®
organic Fruit Nectars have been formulated to be delicious alone
or with water added.
The
fruit nectars are produced using hand-harvested heirloom variety
fruits from select regions of Italy. The flavor of heirloom fruit
is sweet, intense and true. The nectars combine fruit juice with
fruit purée for a thicker, distinctly different flavor without
added sugar or water. The resulting beverage tastes exactly like
the fruit from which it is derived and is not too sweet or pulpy.
bionaturæ®
organic Fruit Nectars are a result of decades of research and development
with fruit beverages. They are distinctive and extraordinary beverages
of the truest fruit flavor.
*Health
Note: Two flavors of our nectars are believed to have medicinal
properties. Bilberry, found also in our Wildberry nectar, is a wild
blueberry that cannot be cultivated and only grows wild at high
elevations. Bilberry jam was given to Royal Air Force pilots who
flew at night during WWII as they noticed it improved their night
vision. European studies confirm bilberry's incredible effect on
vision. Bilberry is also helpful in preventing and treating urinary
tract infections and is an anti-inflammatory herb. Although it has
not been proven in clinical trials, Sour Cherry juice is believed
to be beneficial in the treatment of arthritis and gout. Sour Cherries
contain significant levels of vitamin C, vitamin A and alpha-linolenic
acid as well as traces of vitamin E, betacarotene, folacin and thiamine
and the antioxidant quercitin.
