Delicious Welch's 100% Grape Juice is made from Welch's own Niagara grapes with absolutely no sugar added.
It's a crisp and refreshing taste that everyone will love and it comes from Welch's own Niagara grapes. Welch's is an agricultural cooperative owned by our grape growers, who actually grow and harvest the delicious Niagara grapes used to make Welch's 100% White Grape Juice. The Niagara grape (related to the Concord grape) is a hardy grape variety, and its juice is prized for its distinctive and natural sweetness. There is no sugar added to Welch's 100% White Grape Juice.
When the fresh Niagara grapes are pressed into juice, natural plant nutrients are naturally released from the grape skins and seeds. A growing body of research suggests that the same natural plant compounds that help protect the grapes from the harshness of the environment may also help protect our health.
Welch's 100% White Grape Juice is abundant in natural antioxidant power!

Welch's 100% White Grape Juice is the best beginner juice!
100% white grape juice is best for a couple of reasons. First, it doesn't contain any sorbitol – sorbitol is a carbohydrate that is difficult for the body to digest, particularly for younger digestive systems. Second, white grape juice has an even balance of natural sugars which also translates to easy digestion.2 If the natural sugars—fructose and glucose—are not evenly balanced, it can throw your young child's digestion out of balance as well, meaning potential colicky symptoms like gas, bloating, crankiness...or even diarrhea.3 Other juices like apple and pear do contain sorbitol and have an uneven balance of fructose and glucose – so, 100% White Grape Juice is clearly a good choice.4,5 Click Best Beginner Juice to learn more.
