Production & Sourcing
Apple Juice-Infused Dried Blueberries are created by first soaking dried blueberries in apple juice. The dried blueberries absorb the apple juice, rehydrating them and infusing them with the sweet and tangy flavor of the juice. After soaking, they undergo a drying process to remove excess moisture, preserving the infused flavor while concentrating the natural sugars. This process results in plump, flavorful blueberries with a slightly chewy texture, ideal for various culinary applications.
