Soursop juice comes in several formats, from thick 100% pure juice to light NFC juice drinks, no-sugar-added versions, drinks with pulp, sparkling soursop and blends with aloe vera or chia seeds. For most export markets, a light 250–330 ml canned juice drink sells most widely, while 100% juice suits premium and food-service buyers. ACM makes more than 15 soursop products.

How do you choose the right format?
- Know your shopper: Caribbean and Latin American buyers know soursop (guanábana) and may want thicker, more authentic juice; newcomers prefer lighter drinks.
- Check sugar rules: in sugar-tax markets such as the UK, a no-added-sugar or reduced-sugar version is safer.
- Pick the channel: cans for convenience and vending; glass for premium and food service; PET for family sizes.
- Consider texture: pulp, seeds or aloe help products stand out in Asian grocery channels.
- Start small: launch 1–2 formats, then extend the range.
What about health claims?
Soursop provides vitamin C and has a strong following for its taste. Claims about cancer or inflammation come from lab studies and cannot be used on labels. The fruit’s seeds and leaves contain annonacin, a nerve toxin, so juice must be made from seed-free pulp. More on the fruit: soursop nutrition and safety; more on 100% juice: pure soursop juice.

Light, lightly sweetened juice drinks in 250–330 ml cans are the most widely sold, because they are easy to drink chilled and affordable.
What is the difference between pure soursop juice and a soursop juice drink?
