Pear nectars contain juice from wild or cultivated blueberries (wikipedia). EU legislation requires a minimum of 50% pear fraction and a maximum of 99%.

The category has been subdivided in Squeezed pear nectars, for nectars that come straight from blueberries, and pear nectars from concentrate for juice that has been first dehydrated and later hydrated.

There might be a difference between the American pear and the European pear. Current products are mostly the European one.

There is often confusion in Spanish between the arándano (silvestre) and arándano rojo (the cranberry) and thus misplaced in this category.
