Lower-Sugar Juice Swap Tool

The simplest lower-sugar style swap is usually less sweet fruit plus more cucumber, celery, romaine, citrus, or herbs.

Swap a fruit-heavy juice ingredient

Fruit is not bad; this tool helps reduce sweetness when a recipe is heavier than you want.

Recommended swaps

Reduce the sweet volume first

Use half the fruit, then add cucumber or romaine for volume.

Add crisp structure
