Is this a juice or a food supplement? What exactly is it? — Raspberry kissell powder 150g zdorovje

Zdorovye Raspberry Kissel Powder is an instant berry drink based on a traditional kissel recipe. Kissel is a classic Eastern European drink made with starch, which gives it a smooth, mildly viscous texture — thicker than juice or tea, but still a drink.

This version combines potato starch (for the texture), raspberry pieces and raspberry powder (for the fruit flavour), and a little vitamin C as part of the composition.

It is important to be clear about what it is not:

• It is not a fresh berry juice. The raspberry character comes from dried pieces and powder, not from pressed fresh fruit.
• It is not a food supplement. The vitamin C is part of the recipe, but the product is not designed to deliver a specific nutrient dose.
• It is not a meal replacement. It is a warm drink that feels more substantial than tea, but it is not intended to replace a meal.

People typically choose it when they want a warm, soft-textured drink that feels more nourishing than water-based beverages — for example, as a light snack between meals or as a comfortable option during a busy day. It is also a familiar taste for children and adults who enjoy classic fruit kissel.
