There are the following criteria for choosing the right, natural pomegranate juice:
| Name | The label should say "Pomegranate Juice", no "nectars" or "drinks". |
| Composition | In addition to pomegranate juice, there should be nothing in the composition. It is not recommended to choose a product with sugar and preservatives. |
| Price | A real, natural drink made from pomegranates cannot cost less than 160 rubles per liter. The price is added to the cost of the grenades themselves. One liter requires as many as three liters of fruit. |
| Production | The juice is prepared either by direct extraction or regenerated. Minimal heat treatment occurs in the first case, so you should give preference to such juice. |
| Sediment | It is admissible in direct-squeezed natural pomegranate juice. |
| Colour | Too light drink indicates its dilution. Real, natural juice has a ruby, slightly brown tint. |
| date of manufacture | If the juice is produced from September to November, then ripe, fresh fruits were used. The production date from spring to autumn indicates that the juice is made from stale, old pomegranates. |
Pay also attention to the country of the drink producer. Ideally, if it is Azerbaijan or Armenia.
