Expiration & Storage Tips
When does peach juice expire?
Unopened store-bought peach juice can last about 1-2 years past the printed date on the package, thanks to pasteurization that kills potentially harmful bacteria. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and used within 1-2 weeks for the best taste and quality. Homemade peach juice needs to be used within 2-3 days when refrigerated due to the absence of preservatives. Freezing is also an option for longer storage, where it can extend the shelf life upto 8-12 months. Always remember to leave about an inch of headspace in the container before freezing, as the juice will expand.
How do you tell if peach juice is bad?
Telling if your peach juice has gone bad is pretty straightforward. If you see mold, fermentation (bubbles, a sour smell, or a change in color), or if the juice has an off smell or taste, it's time to toss it. Also, if the can or bottle is leaking, rusting, bulging, or severely dented, the juice may not be safe to consume.
Tips for storing peach juice to extend shelf life
• Always store your opened peach juice in the refrigerator. It should be put away as soon as possible to maintain freshness. • If you know that you won't finish the juice within a week or two of opening, consider freezing it right away. • For longer storage, pour the juice into ice cube trays and pop a cube or two whenever needed. This way, it won't freeze into a solid block, and you'll be able to defrost just the amount you need. • If you want to keep homemade peach juice for a longer time, you could consider canning it. This process involves heating the juice to kill bacteria, yeasts, and molds that cause food spoilage, then preserving it in sealed jars. Be sure to follow safe canning practices.
