Breakdown for 0.5 cups
Is cranberry drink (27% juice) low FODMAP?
The green serving has low ratings for all six FODMAP groups. At the two larger volumes, fructans are the group that changes, rather than fructose or sorbitol. This entry describes the ready-to-drink 27%-juice product, so it should not be treated as a portion guide for pure cranberry juice, concentrated cordial or whole cranberries.
Cranberry Drink (27% Juice) and IBS: what to know
Record the juice percentage and drink volume if cranberry drinks appear in your IBS food diary. A glass described simply as 'cranberry juice' may refer to a different product. The green amount provides a FODMAP reference, not a promise about individual tolerance or a reason to overlook the other ingredients in a mixed drink.
Gut-friendly ways to eat cranberry drink (27% juice)
Check the bottle first, then measure the drink before adding ice or other liquids. If using it as a mixer, count the cranberry drink poured as well as any other components; the final glass size does not reveal that amount. Compare apple juice blend and orange juice blend through their own guides when choosing between fruit drinks, rather than borrowing this cranberry portion.
