Can drinking apple juice or Gatorade turn urine yellow?

Drinking apple juice or Gatorade can affect the color of your urine. Certain pigments, such as beta-carotene, which in high amounts can impart an orange-yellow color to the urine. Vitamin B12 found in some energy drinks can also cause the urine to appear yellow. Additionally, large quantities of vitamin B and C, artificial colors, or sweeteners in these beverages may also alter urine color.

These color changes are generally harmless and usually temporary, but if you notice a sudden or persistent change in urine color that concerns you, it's always a good idea to consult with a doctor.
