H-E-B 100% Orange Juice with Some Pulp
What it is
This is a beverage made from the juice of oranges. It is pasteurized to ensure safety and shelf stability. The presence of 'some pulp' means that small pieces of the orange fruit have been left in the juice, giving it a slightly different texture and mouthfeel compared to juice without pulp. It is a straightforward juice product intended for consumption as a drink.

This orange juice is ready to drink directly from the container. It can be poured into a glass and served chilled. For those who enjoy it colder, it can be poured over ice.
