The Thrive Nutrition App lists three cranberry forms per 100 g, each on its own USDA SR Legacy row: raw cranberries (USDA FDC SR Legacy 171722, Cranberries, raw) on Cranberry, unsweetened cranberry juice (USDA FDC SR Legacy 168117, Cranberry juice, unsweetened) on Cranberry juice, and sweetened dried cranberries (USDA FDC SR Legacy 171723, Cranberries, dried, sweetened) on Dried cranberry. The juice card is unsweetened juice as sold, not a cranberry juice cocktail. The dried card is the sweetened dried fruit as sold. The table below links each live card. A blank cell means Missing: that row does not report the nutrient; it is not a zero.
All three cards are Measured — each is its own source row, not a closest match to another food. The fresh card already names the plant as Vaccinium macrocarpon.
Fresh, unsweetened juice, and sweetened dried
These are three different foods / states of the same fruit, not three labels for one row.
- Cranberry is raw fruit (raw).
- Cranberry juice is unsweetened juice as sold. Packs labelled cocktail or “juice drink” are not this card.
- Dried cranberry is dried, sweetened fruit as sold (the card also uses “craisins”). It is not an unsweetened dried fruit.
Per 100 g is not a typical handful, glass or serving. Dried fruit is denser; this page does not scale or “correct” the numbers to a portion.
The sugars column is total sugars as reported on the card. “Natural sugars” is not a USDA nutrient and is not used as a label here. Sugars on Cranberry juice are Missing — the live card has no sugars figure, so this page leaves that cell blank rather than filling it from the USDA file.
This page is food data only. It does not discuss health uses of cranberry products.

Cranberry products without a Thrive Nutrition App card yet
These are not rows on this page. Add them only from a verified, named USDA or CoFID record.
- Cranberry juice cocktail or other sweetened juice — a different, sugary food. Do not reuse USDA FDC SR Legacy 168117.
- Cranberry sauce — no live card today.
- Unsweetened dried cranberries — the live dried card is sweetened. A survey row named only “Cranberries, dried” is not, by itself, an unsweetened-dried composition record.
Cranberry is not the same as cranberry (roman) beans or lingonberry (sometimes called low-bush cranberry). Those are different foods and are not treated as cranberry forms here.
How to read the numbers
- Values are per 100 g in the state named on each card.
- A dash is Missing: the live card does not report that nutrient. Blank is not zero, and a blank is not filled from another card or from the raw USDA file.
- Measured means the card is the source row itself.
- Sugars are total sugars as reported on the card.
- See About our data, vitamin C per 100 g and fibre per 100 g. Browse the food catalogue.
FAQ
What is the nutrition of cranberry juice per 100 g?
See the unsweetened juice row in the table and Cranberry juice. That card is unsweetened, not cocktail. Sugars on Cranberry juice are Missing — the live card has no sugars figure, so this page leaves that cell blank rather than filling it from the USDA file.
How do fresh and dried cranberries compare per 100 g?
See the table. The dried card is sweetened; per 100 g is not the same as a typical portion.
Is the Thrive Nutrition App’s cranberry juice sweetened?
No. The card is USDA “Cranberry juice, unsweetened” (USDA FDC SR Legacy 168117). Cocktail is a gap, not this row.
Do you have cranberry sauce?
No card today. It is listed as a gap until a USDA or CoFID row backs one.
Where do the nutrient numbers come from?
Each card’s USDA FoodData Central record per 100 g, taken from the built card. See About our data.
