Yes — CBD infused drink is ultra-processed.
This CBD-infused sparkling drink is ultra-processed because it contains industrial additives and formulations, including the flavour enhancer erythritol, natural flavouring/aroma, fruit juice from concentrate, and soy lecithin used with CBD. Erythritol is a purified polyol sweetener and flavour enhancer, natural flavourings are industrially produced additives, concentrates are extensively processed juice ingredients, and lecithin is an industrial emulsifier; together these clearly place the product in the NOVA ultra-processed category.
