Barley water, undiluted

Barley water is a drink made using barley. The figures here describe undiluted barley water in orange and lemon flavours, rather than the drink after adding water. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 24g of carbohydrate, including 22g of sugars, per 100g. This amount supplies 384 kJ of energy and 10mg of vitamin C, with only trace amounts of fat and fibre.

The sugar content is worth noting for people monitoring their sugar or energy intake. Adding water reduces the concentration but does not remove sugar from the amount of concentrate used. Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
