Questions about Orange drink
Is orange drink the same as orange juice?
No. Orange juice is squeezed from oranges; orange drink is a broader term for a beverage flavoured with orange, and it may be made with juice, concentrate, water and other ingredients. The name alone does not tell you how much orange it contains.
How can you tell whether an orange drink contains real orange juice?
Look for orange juice or orange juice from concentrate in the ingredients list. If it appears near the beginning, it makes up more of the recipe than ingredients listed after it; orange flavouring alone does not mean the drink contains juice.
Can you use orange drink instead of orange juice in a recipe?
You can use it in smoothies, ice lollies or a simple orange glaze, but it is usually sweeter and less intensely citrusy than juice. For cake batter or savoury sauces, use less added sugar and add a little lemon juice to bring back the tartness.
How should you serve orange drink?
Serve it well chilled, either over ice or straight from the fridge. For a less sweet drink, mix it with sparkling water; a squeeze of fresh lime adds a sharper citrus note.
What goes well with orange drink at breakfast?
It pairs well with toast, pancakes and a savoury breakfast such as eggs. Its sweet, citrus flavour also works alongside spicy food, where a cool drink can balance the heat.
How should you store orange drink after opening?
Keep it in the fridge with the cap tightly closed and use it within the time stated on the packaging. If it has been left warm for a long time, smells fermented or has changed appearance, discard it.
Is orange drink high in vitamin C?
It provides 1 mg of vitamin C per 100 g. Recipes differ, so orange-flavoured drinks that contain little or no juice may provide much less.
How does orange drink compare with orange soft drink?
Orange drink provides 49 kcal per 100 g, while orange soft drink provides 38 kcal. The names are not used consistently, so check the ingredients if you want to know whether a particular drink contains juice.
