berry stain

Juice mark remains

Berry stain is a discoloration left by crushed berries on fabric, skin, or surfaces.

The pigments in berries—particularly dark ones like blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries—are notoriously difficult to remove: I couldn't get the berry stain out of his white shirt.

The term also describes the characteristic reddish-purple color such stains leave behind.
