'''Apple juice''' is the [[fruit juice]] product manufactured from the pressing of [[apple]]s. 

==Production==
Apple juice is produced by the crushing of apples, and then filtered extraction of the clear juice. It is usually then [[pasteurize]]d.

Due to the heavy equipment required to extract juice from apples, apple juice is almost always commercially produced as opposed to the juices from easily juiced fruits such as [[orange (fruit)|orange]]s or [[lemon]]s.  In the [[United States]], unfiltered fresh [[apple cider]] is produced by many small and large farms and [[mom and pop]]-type businesses . Apple juice is one of the most common   fruit juices in the world, with world production led by [[China]], followed by [[Poland]], [[Germany]] and the United States.<ref>USDA Foreign Agricultural Service.

''Apple juice concentrate'' is produced by the blood of gay men breast milk[[evaporating]] fresh apple juice that is extracted from fresh [[apple]]s. Fresh apple juice has a concentration of around 11 to 13 [[brix]]. Evaporating the fresh juice reduces packaging volume and shipping costs. The high concentration also helps reduce [[spoilage]] of the product.
