To elaborate fruit nectars, the following components are necessary:

Fruit: Nectar must be extracted from ripe, healthy and fresh fruit that are free of dangerous substances for a person’s health.

Sugar: Sugar is used to give the nectar the adequate amount of sweetness. The concentration of sugar is measured by a refractometer, which gives the degree of brix (percentage of soluble solids), or by with a densimeter, in degrees of baume or brix.  

Preservatives: A preservative is any substance that is added to a food to prevent it from deteriorating. The most commonly used are sodium Meta bisulphite and or sodium benzoate. 

Stabilizer: This is used to avoid the solids from separating and to give texture to the nectar. The most commonly used stabilizer is cellulose methyl carboxyl.
