Yes — Elderflower Soft Drink is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This is an ultra-processed soft drink because it contains sweeteners, which are pre-identified as UPF ingredients, along with natural elderflower flavour and the preservatives potassium sorbate (E202) and sodium benzoate (E211). These industrial additives and flavouring contribute to its UPF classification. Carbon dioxide, sugar, acidity regulators, and natural mineral water do not independently determine the classification.

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
