Does this shot contain added sugar?

This beverage uses agave as its only added sweetener, blended in a small amount to balance the natural tartness of sea buckthorn juice (25%) and the pungent heat of the ginger juice (17%). Agave is a natural sweetener that dissolves easily and has a slightly lower glycemic index than regular sugar, but it is still a form of added sugar. The drink is not marketed as sugar-free or low-sugar; its character is defined by the vivid, sour berry profile and spicy ginger warmth, with agave providing just enough sweetness to make those intense flavors more approachable. For context, if you are closely monitoring your sugar intake, it is sensible to check the nutrition label on the bottle for the exact amount per serving.

Given the relatively high share of juices, the shot has a more intense, less diluted taste than a standard soft drink, which means its flavor strength does not rely on high sweetness. If you prefer completely unsweetened options, you might find the agave noticeable, though it is not the dominant note.
