Frequently Asked Questions About Capri-Sun Cherry
Is Capri-Sun Cherry juice or a fruit drink?
Capri-Sun Cherry is a sweetened, cherry-flavoured fruit drink, not 100% cherry juice. Its fruit-juice content can vary between markets, so the ingredient list on the pouch is the best guide to the version sold where you live.
Does Capri-Sun Cherry have added sugar?
Yes, Capri-Sun Cherry is sweetened, so it is not a sugar-free drink. If you are choosing drinks for everyday use, water or an unsweetened option is a better way to avoid added sugars.
Does Capri-Sun Cherry contain caffeine?
No, Capri-Sun Cherry is caffeine-free. It can be an option when you are avoiding caffeine, though it is still a sweetened drink rather than a replacement for water.
Does Capri-Sun Cherry need to be refrigerated before opening?
No, an unopened Capri-Sun Cherry pouch does not normally need refrigeration. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat, and refrigerate any portion left after opening.
How do you open a Capri-Sun Cherry pouch without spilling it?
Hold the Capri-Sun Cherry pouch upright and steady it on a firm surface before inserting the straw. Push the straw through the marked spot gently; squeezing the pouch while opening it is what commonly causes spills.
Can you freeze Capri-Sun Cherry into ice pops?
Yes, Capri-Sun Cherry can be frozen as an ice-pop-style treat. Leave room for the liquid to expand, and avoid freezing the pouch until it becomes rigid enough to split or leak.
Is Capri-Sun Cherry suitable for a lunchbox?
Yes, an unopened Capri-Sun Cherry pouch is convenient for a lunchbox because it is individually packed and shelf-stable. Keep it out of a hot car or direct sun, and include water as the main everyday drink.
Can you drink Capri-Sun Cherry after opening it?
Yes, but refrigerate Capri-Sun Cherry after opening and drink it promptly. The pouch cannot be sealed again after the straw is inserted, so it is best not to leave a partly finished one at room temperature.
Is Capri-Sun Cherry a fizzy drink?
No, Capri-Sun Cherry is non-carbonated. It should not have the bubbles or pressure associated with soda, and it is designed to be sipped through the pouch's straw.
Can you use Capri-Sun Cherry as a drink for sports?
You can drink Capri-Sun Cherry during or after exercise, but it is not a sports drink formulated to replace fluids and electrolytes lost through heavy sweating. For ordinary activity, water is usually the practical choice.

What is Capri-Sun Cherry?
Capri-Sun Cherry is a sweetened, cherry-flavoured juice drink sold in a soft pouch. It is a convenient packaged drink rather than a source of whole fruit: it has no fibre, and its carbohydrates come mainly from sugars. A 200 g pouch is a familiar single serving.
It is usually enjoyed chilled, packed in lunch bags, taken on outings or served as a quick refreshment. Its sweet, fruity taste can appeal to children and adults alike, though it is best treated as an occasional drink rather than a replacement for water or whole fruit. For a lighter option, share a pouch or serve a smaller amount alongside water.
