Sugarcane juice and kumquats are a popular combination, with many people mixing the two to balance out the sweetness. But does this actually reduce the sugar content in the juice? In truth, adding kumquats to sugarcane juice only reduces the sweet taste, but not the sugar content. 100 ml of sugarcane juice contains approximately 20g of sugar, and when kumquats or ice are added, the volume increases but the sugar content remains the same.
There are two common ways to mix kumquats with sugarcane juice. The first method involves juicing both together to create a perfectly blended drink. This is a convenient option for many people. Alternatively, you can cut up the kumquats and squeeze their juice into the sugarcane after it has been pressed. This helps avoid any bitter taste from the peel of the kumquat and ensures that no excess bitterness makes its way into your drink. However, it is important not to add too much kumquat juice as it can make your drink too sour.
Despite adding kumquats to sugarcane juice only reducing its sweet taste, it is recommended that adults limit their intake of sugary drinks like this one to 2 cups (about 300 ml) per day. Excessive intake of sugary drinks can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It is also important to consume sugarcane juice promptly after juicing if you do decide to add kumquats to avoid spoilage. Additionally, be mindful of other sources of added sugars in your diet as well in order to maintain a healthy one.
Overall, while mixing sugarcane juice with kumquats may make for a more enjoyable drink experience, it does not actually decrease its sugar content or make it healthier overall. It’s important for adults to be mindful of their consumption habits and limit their intake of sugary drinks like this one for optimal health outcomes.
