I bought a litre of fresh orange juice at the Mildura farmers market yesterday. I took a swig before realising that was probably a bad idea since it still needed to spend about 8 hours in my bag. I think it's meant to be refrigerated, and it definitely wouldn't have been treated. But I'm already sick so I'm going to drink it and just hope it doesn't make me worse. It tastes a lot more acidic than supermarket stuff, so that might help it not kill me, I hope. It smells fine, anyway
I had a swig of it and a chorizo and cheese sandwich and I'm starting to feel better. I think now I need a nap though
Given the cool temperatures outside and the acid in the juice it's probably fine, although you wouldn't make a habit of it.
She'll be right, it's more likely to ferment a little than go off, see if it goes bubbly.
