Frequently Asked Questions About Fresh-pressed fruit juice
Is fresh-pressed fruit juice good for you?
Yes, fresh-pressed fruit juice can provide vitamins, including vitamin C, but it contains much less fiber than whole fruit. Because it is easy to drink quickly, it may be less filling than eating the fruit it came from.
Is fresh-pressed fruit juice healthier than whole fruit?
Usually not: whole fruit keeps more of its fiber and tends to be more filling. Fresh-pressed fruit juice can still provide vitamins, but pressing removes much of the pulp, so it is better viewed as a drink rather than a replacement for all whole fruit.
Is fresh-pressed fruit juice pasteurized?
Not necessarily. Fresh-pressed fruit juice is often served unpasteurized, though some producers use pasteurization or another safety treatment. If it is unpasteurized, keep it chilled and take extra care when serving it to people at higher risk from foodborne illness.
How long does fresh-pressed fruit juice last in the fridge?
Keep fresh-pressed fruit juice in a sealed container in the refrigerator and drink it within 24–48 hours. Discard it if it has been left out for a long time or develops an unusual smell, taste, or appearance.
Can you freeze fresh-pressed fruit juice?
Yes, fresh-pressed fruit juice can be frozen in a freezer-safe container, leaving room for expansion. Thaw it in the refrigerator and drink it soon after; the juice may separate, so stir or shake it before serving.
Does fresh-pressed fruit juice have added sugar?
Fresh-pressed fruit juice made only from fruit has no added sugar, but it still contains the fruit’s naturally occurring sugars. Adding sweeteners is a separate step, so a homemade juice does not need extra sugar to taste sweet.
Does fresh-pressed fruit juice count toward your daily fruit intake?
Yes, it can count toward fruit intake, but it does not offer the same fiber or fullness as whole fruit. Follow the serving guidance used where you live, and make whole fruit part of your routine too.
Why does fresh-pressed fruit juice separate after standing?
Separation is normal: heavier pulp and other fruit particles settle while the liquid stays above them. It does not automatically mean the juice has spoiled; mix it again, while checking that it has been stored safely.
Is fresh-pressed fruit juice good to drink before a workout?
It can provide quickly available carbohydrates before exercise, but the fruit sugars may not suit everyone just before a workout. Try a small amount well before training first, especially if you are prone to stomach discomfort.
Does fresh-pressed fruit juice hydrate you as well as water?
Fresh-pressed fruit juice contributes fluid, but water is the better everyday choice for hydration because juice also contains natural sugars. After exercise or in hot weather, use water as your main drink rather than relying on juice.

What is Fresh-pressed fruit juice?
Fresh-pressed fruit juice is made by extracting juice from fresh fruit, most often oranges, though the choice varies with the season and region. It is served freshly made at home, cafés and juice bars, with no added sugar when it is simply squeezed fruit.
Its bright, sweet-tart flavour makes it a familiar breakfast drink in many places, and it is also enjoyed alongside brunch or as a refreshing drink during the day. Unlike whole fruit, it contains very little fibre; its carbohydrates mostly come from the fruit’s natural sugars, and it provides vitamin C. For a lighter drink, dilute it with water, or have a modest glass alongside food rather than treating it as a substitute for whole fruit.
