Yes — FRUIT & BARLEY SUMMER FRUITS is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This fruit-and-barley drink is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and sweeteners: sodium citrate as an acidity regulator, acesulfame K and sucralose as artificial sweeteners, preservatives including potassium sorbate and sodium metabisulphite, and natural flavouring. The refined barley flour is also an industrially refined ingredient. The vitamins, fruit juices, citric acid, malic acid, carrot concentrate, and anthocyanins do not independently determine the classification, but the identified additives do.
Other drinks Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — FRUIT & BARLEY SUMMER FRUITS by ROBINSONS, Robertsons is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This fruit-and-barley drink is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and sweeteners: sodium citrate as an acidity regulator, acesulfame K and sucralose as artificial sweeteners, preservatives including potassium sorbate and sodium metabisulphite, and natural flavouring. The refined barley flour is also an industrially refined ingredient. The vitamins, fruit juices, citric acid, malic acid, carrot concentrate, and anthocyanins do not independently determine the classification, but the identified additives do.
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.
