When it comes to juice, not all options are created equal. From "fresh-squeezed" to "cold-pressed," the terminology can get confusing. At Twisted Alchemy, we’re passionate about delivering juices that are not only delicious but also retain their nutrients, flavors, and vibrant colors—thanks to cold-pressed juicing and a process called High Pressure Processing (HPP).
Here’s why cold-pressed juice is the best kind of juice and how our commitment to HPP ensures you’re getting the freshest, highest-quality product every time.
What Makes Cold-Pressed Juice So Special?
Cold-pressed juice is created using hydraulic pressure to extract juice from fruits without generating heat. Unlike traditional juicing methods, this process doesn’t oxidize or degrade the juice’s nutrients. The result? A juice that’s packed with the natural vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that fruits provide, retaining their vibrant flavor and health benefits.
With cold-pressed juice, you’re tasting the pure essence of fresh fruit—not something that’s been compromised by heat or over-processing.
What is HPP (High Pressure Processing)?
High Pressure Processing (HPP) is the secret behind Twisted Alchemy’s long-lasting, fresh, and nutrient-packed juices. This innovative, cold pasteurization technique uses ultra-high water pressure—up to 87,000 psi—to eliminate harmful pathogens like salmonella and E. coli without applying heat.
How It Works:
-
Juices are sealed in flexible, water-resistant packaging.
-
They’re subjected to hydrostatic pressure for a few seconds to minutes.
-
Harmful bacteria are destroyed while vitamins, minerals, live enzymes, and probiotics remain intact.
How HPP Differs from Heat Pasteurization
Unlike HPP, traditional heat pasteurization—often labeled as "flash-pasteurized" or "gently pasteurized"—involves exposing juice to high temperatures. While this process does eliminate bacteria, it also "cooks" the juice, stripping it of essential nutrients and live enzymes. The result is a product that’s stable but less nutritious and flavorful.
Why We Love HPP Over Heat Pasteurization:
-
Preserves Nutrients: Cold-pressed juices retain their vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
-
Keeps Enzymes Intact: Live enzymes remain active, supporting digestion and overall health.
-
Pure Flavor: No "cooked" aftertaste—just the vibrant, natural taste of fresh fruit.
-
Long Shelf Life: HPP extends shelf life up to 225 days without using preservatives or additives.
At Twisted Alchemy, we’re committed to avoiding heat pasteurization entirely. Our juices are never subjected to thermal processes that compromise their quality.
How Long Does Cold-Pressed Juice Last?
Thanks to HPP, our cold-pressed juices stay fresh for up to 225 days from production. When you order from Twisted Alchemy, your juices arrive with at least 30 days of shelf life remaining, and they stay fresh for another 30 days beyond the printed date if kept refrigerated—whether opened or unopened.
