Morphology
unpasteurized = pasteurized (transparent) = un + pasteurize + ed
The adjective 'pasteurized' is negated by the productive prefix 'un-' to mean 'not pasteurized', a straightforward and regular formation.
Etymology
Unpasteurized begins with un- meaning 'not' and the rest comes from the name Pasteur, the scientist whose method of using heat to kill germs gave us the verb pasteurize. So, unpasteurized means food or drink that is 'not treated by Pasteur's method', in other words not heated to kill germs.
