I never thought to try one of these, even though I buy coffee every day. And in this fast paced world it's nice to find little gems like this.
It didn't take long for my taste buds to react because this is some fine juice! It says it is cold-pressed and contains orange juice, pineapple juice, and mango puree among a few other fruit juices. But this is not about this drink, although I recommend it if you happen to be at Starbucks. This is about the distorted labeling of fruit juice, in particular Tropicana.
I tend to stay away from drinks like Tropicana because even though it says 100% fruit juice, that is a lie. The juice goes through a process in which the flavors have to be "re-introduced" into the product.
This is not to say that this juice is terrible for you, but it is definitely not squeezed straight from an orange and into your box. The oranges need to be dehydrated first and then they reintroduce it to some water at the factories. Seemingly so, the box still says 100% pure orange juice.
This is quite a shock to me as I have always thought it was real pure orange juice. But upon discovering this fact, I have since noticed that it does not taste close enough to the real "orange" juice. The kind freshly squeezed on your kitchen counter! It can also be acquired by meticulously choosing the right brands, though it is better to stock up on the fruits yourself!

This is so true. Most store bought juice is made this way. I tend to buy mine from farmers markets.
the farmers market must have quality juice. I hope the ones in my area do too
There is one in the fall that brings an apple press and makes it for you right there. You just buy the apples and they will press them for free...Bring your own jug though.
