Dimes Mixed Fruit Nectar (Karışık Meyve Nektarı) is a fruit blend sold in a 1 litre carton, pictured on the pack with orange, peach and grapes.

The manufacturer gives 38 kcal per 100 ml, with 9.4 g of carbohydrate, of which 7.8 g sugars, and 0 g fat. Dimes has updated this carton and its wording over time, so check the label on your pack for the full ingredient list.
A mixed nectar is the easy crowd-pleaser: sweet enough for children, with a gentle citrus tartness that adults like. In Turkish homes it is poured at breakfast, packed alongside sandwiches, and put on the table for visitors with cake or biscuits. Serve it well chilled, add ice and a slice of orange, or mix it with sparkling water for a lighter fruit spritzer.
Shake the carton before pouring and store it unopened in a cool, dry place. After opening, keep it in the refrigerator and drink it within two days.
