The term "grape juice" refers to the liquid extracted from grapes through various methods such as crushing, squeezing or pressing. It is a sweet and refreshing drink that contains high amounts of vitamins (such as Vitamin C), minerals, antioxidants and flavonoids. Grape juice can be consumed in its purest form or used as an ingredient in cooking, baking or mixed with other liquors to create cocktails. It is also a popular choice for religious ceremonies such as communion due to its symbolic significance of the blood of Christ.
