Aldi Fruit Punch drink mix

Breakdown

4 ingredients to avoid

PurAqua Aldi Fruit Punch drink mix scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

PurAqua Aldi Fruit Punch drink mix lists 12 ingredients, starting with Citric Acid, Maltodextrin, Natural and Artificial Flavor, Aspartame and Calcium Phosphate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 PurAqua Aldi Fruit Punch drink mix scores worse than most water we have scored. A higher-scoring option in water is Ice Mountain 100% Natural Spring Water at 100/100.
