About CITRUS DROP
Big K Citrus Drop is a carbonated soft drink from The Kroger Co.'s Big K store-brand beverage line. Big K is Kroger's value-positioned private-label soda brand available across Kroger-family supermarkets. This product falls into the soda category and is formulated as a citrus-flavored carbonated beverage with caffeine, analogous to nationally branded citrus sodas.
Carbonated water forms the base. High fructose corn syrup is the primary sweetener. Citric acid contributes the characteristic citrus tartness. Sodium benzoate serves as a preservative. Sodium citrate acts as a buffering agent and flavor modifier. Orange juice concentrate provides a minor natural citrus note. Gum arabic is an emulsifier and flavor carrier. Natural flavor contributes additional citrus character. Caffeine is added as a stimulant ingredient, present at a typical soft drink level. Ester gum (glycerol ester of wood rosin) functions as a clouding and weighting agent to keep the orange juice concentrate suspended in the beverage. Yellow 5 (tartrazine) is used as a synthetic colorant to achieve the characteristic yellow-orange appearance.
Allergens: no common allergens are present based on listed ingredients. The product contains caffeine, which should be noted for caffeine-sensitive individuals, pregnant persons, and children. Yellow 5 carries an EU advisory for potential effects on children's activity and attention.
Per 100 ml, this soda provides 54 calories, 0 g protein, 13.33 g carbohydrates, and 0 g fat. Calorie density per serving is moderate for a full-sugar carbonated beverage. Not suitable for caffeine-free, no-added-sugar, or low-carbohydrate diets.
