Selecting, storing & prepping apple juice
- Selecting
- Cloudy, unfiltered apple juice retains more of the apple's natural fiber and antioxidants than the clear, filtered versions most commonly sold.
- Storing
- Unopened, keeps until the printed date; once opened, use within 7-10 days refrigerated. Juice that's started to ferment develops a sharp, slightly alcoholic smell and should be discarded.
- Prepping
- Diluting apple juice with water is a common way to cut its sugar concentration for younger kids without eliminating the drink entirely.

Key metrics
Nutrient density
Per 100 kcal, apple juice delivers about 4% of a Daily Value on average across 22 beneficial nutrients. The score is its percentile for that measure among the 177 foods in our database — higher means more nutrition per calorie. How this is calculated.
Density counts protein, fiber, and vitamins and minerals (not fat, sodium, or sugar), each capped so a single nutrient can’t dominate, with a calorie floor so very-low-calorie foods aren’t overstated. It measures nutrition per calorie within our database — a useful guide, not a complete verdict on how “healthy” a food is.
