Boysenberry Concentrate

Concentrate Process 

This product is a natural sugar solution, extracted or pressed and filtered from the skin, pulp and seeds of the boysenberry. The solution is depectinized, filtered and evaporated under vacuum to a specified Brix level.  It is usually folded two to seven times the original Brix value.
