* Aseptic puree - Same as "Pureed Fresh", but has already been pasteurized. This is usually the case for commercially available puree. We recommend [http://www.oregonfruit.com/specialty-fruit-products Oregon Specialty Fruit] or [https://www.perfectpuree.com/ The Perfect Puree] for quality commercial puree.
* Concentrates and extracts - Concentrates can lose aromatics due to the process, and are generally not as recommended. Some manufacturers such as Kings Orchards uses a process that reintroduces the aroma back into the concentrate <ref name="kohlmorgen">[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/1167993543228858/?comment_id=1168045469890332&offset=0&total_comments=25&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R4%22%7D Conversation with Kyle Kohlmorgen on MTF regarding fruit. 10/23/2015.]</ref>.
* Juice - Make sure there is no sugar or preservatives added <ref name="kohlmorgen"></ref>. R.W. Knudsen brand juice has been recommended if available <ref name="Coffey_pomegranate">[http://www.alesoftheriverwards.com/2015/11/pomegranate-margarita-gose.html Pomegranate Margarita Gose.

This gives the advantage of being able to add a little bit at a time to the secondary fermenter, and being able to add to taste.
* Dried/Dehydrated - Make sure they are oil and sulfur free. Oils can be considered a processing aid, and don't have to be listed on the ingredients list.
