How long can orange juice be out of the fridge?

Freshly squeezed or opened orange juice can be left out at room temperature for up to 2 hours, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

However, it is important to note that the quality of the juice will deteriorate over time, and it may start to taste sour or develop an off-flavour.

For the best quality, it is recommended to consume orange juice within an hour of squeezing or opening it.

If you do not plan to drink the juice right away, it is best to store it in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and quality.

Orange juice can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
