Why does Five-Alive have no Vitamin C?

Five Alive is supposed to have some real juice in it, yet no Vitamin C is listed on the nutrition label. Other juices have Vitamin C, Fruitopia, for example.

Why does Five-Alive have no Vitamin C?
It contains trace amounts, but is only 41% fruit juice. The rest is filtered water and high fructose corn syrup.

Drinks like that have vitamin C ADDED to them, so it's all up to the manufacturer to decided whether or not they want to add vitamin C.





Vitamin C gives it a distinctive sourness, so that could be one reason they don't add it.
