Nature’s Nectar Sparkling Juice

In my house, we drink mostly water, along with a lot of hot tea and the occasional glass of milk. In other words, we tend to keep things pretty simple. We’re not big soda drinkers, mainly for health reasons.

Occasionally, we’ll indulge in some sparkling water or juice. Recently, I spotted some single-serving cans of sparkling juice in the drink aisle at Aldi. These have no added sugar, are made with real fruit, and contain 60% juice.

These are available in blackberry, grapefruit, and clementine flavors. I picked up one of each flavor to try at home.

Nature’s Nectar Sparkling Juice appears to be a Regular Buy that’s available year round at Aldi, but I’m not completely sure about that. I found it on the room-temperature shelves near the soda, Poppi drinks, and other beverages.

These are sold under the Nature’s Nectar brand. That’s not a company. Rather, it’s the uniform name Aldi puts on various juices and juice products it sells, which it sources from different suppliers.

We buy Aldi products for review using our own money. I paid $0.89 per 8.4-ounce can at my local Aldi in May of 2025. That’s around 11 cents per ounce.

These feature primarily water and fruit juice from concentrate. They do contain natural flavors and a few other extra things. The full ingredients lists are as follows:

• Blackberry: water, apple juice from concentrate, blackberry juice from concentrate, natural flavors, raspberry juice concentrate, grape juice concentrate, and citric acid.
• Grapefruit: water, apple juice from concentrate, orange juice from concentrate, grapefruit juice from concentrate, natural flavors, citric acid, gum arabic, ester gum, and vegetable juice for color.
• Clementine: water, apple juice from concentrate, orange juice from concentrate, natural flavors, citric acid, gum arabic, ester gum, and beta carotene.

One can has 70 calories, no fat, 5 mg of sodium (0% DV), 17-18 grams of total carbohydrates (6-7% DV), no dietary fiber, 16-17 grams of total sugars, no added sugars, and no protein.

My family and I sampled all three flavors, and the blackberry was hands down our favorite, with good fruity notes. Our second favorite was the clementine flavor, with the grapefruit coming in third. All of these are good, though, and your own personal preferences may vary.

Overall, these are a nice alternative to soda, and I like that they don’t have added sugars or any artificial sweeteners. I’d happily buy the blackberry flavor again.

The Verdict:

Nature’s Nectar Sparkling Juice comes in blackberry, clementine, and grapefruit flavors. It has no added sugar or sugar substitutes, and it’s the perfect treat when you want a fizzy drink. All of the flavors are good, but we like blackberry the best.
