Summary
This sparkling watermelon juice is primarily made from watermelon juice, which is a natural and hydrating ingredient. However, the product is considered ultra-processed due to the inclusion of additives like citric acid and ascorbic acid, which are used to maintain color and acidity. Despite the clean ingredient list, the processing level limits its score, and the presence of added acids slightly detracts from its overall healthiness.
