Made with Premium Nanko-Ume from Wakayama Prefecture

Born in 2002, Aprimore was created using high-quality Nanko-Ume (南高梅) Japanese apricots. This non-alcoholic drink is designed to be gentle on the body, easy to drink, and beneficial for overall wellness. Our company has sourced umeboshi (dried Japanese plums) from Wakayama Prefecture for many years, inspired by the traditional Japanese belief in umeboshi’s revitalizing properties. Although umeboshi is valued for its sour and salty taste, it’s often eaten with meals and not always preferred by everyone.

Our goal was to make umeboshi's health benefits more accessible and enjoyable, which led to the creation of Aprimore—a concentrated drink made from the fruit of the Japanese apricot. The name combines "Japanese Apricot" and "more," symbolizing a product that is both more delicious and healthier than traditional umeboshi.

Made with Premium Nanko-Ume from Wakayama Prefecture

Aprimore is crafted with the finest Nanko-Ume plums from Kishu in Wakayama Prefecture, renowned for their quality. Each 710ml bottle of Aprimore contains the citric acid equivalent of approximately 40 Nanko-Ume. To enhance its flavor and health benefits, Aprimore also includes red shiso extract, honey, plum extract, royal jelly, and other natural ingredients. It’s the perfect drink for moments when you’re feeling tired, need a refreshing boost in the heat, or want to rehydrate during sports activities.

Key Ingredients

• Kishu Nanko-Ume Juice
  Each 710ml bottle contains the natural citric acid of 40 Nanko-Ume. Citric acid helps metabolize sugar in the body, converting it into energy, and prevents the buildup of fatigue by breaking down lactic acid. It also aids in the absorption of minerals like magnesium and calcium.
• Red Shiso Extract
  Traditionally used as a herbal remedy, red shiso has been shown to alleviate allergy symptoms in recent medical studies.
• Plum Extract
  This extract contains "mumefural," a rare component produced by boiling plums that is thought to improve blood circulation.
• Royal Jelly
  Known as the exclusive nourishment of the queen bee, royal jelly is a nutritional powerhouse.

How to Enjoy Aprimore

Since Aprimore is concentrated, dilute it with water (5 parts water to 1 part Aprimore) for a refreshing drink. One 710ml bottle provides about 20 servings of 180ml each. However, you can enjoy it in various ways:

Cold: Dilute with cold water or soda for a refreshing, clean taste—ideal for warm weather.

Warm: Mix with hot water, or add it to black tea along with ginger to warm up in cooler seasons.

With Milk: Blend with milk for a yogurt-like texture—a perfect choice for children, those on a diet, or as a light late-night snack.

As a Beauty Cocktail: Mix with white wine for a rejuvenating cocktail.

With Shochu: Combine with shochu for a unique drink; Aprimore’s sweet and sour flavor pairs well.

• For a Chinese-style Dressing: Mix 1 part Aprimore with 2 parts soy sauce and a bit of sesame oil.
