How to keep the rest
After opening, refrigerate any unused portion of the peach juice. It is best to consume the opened product within a few days to maintain its freshness and flavor. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent oxidation and contamination. Store in the main body of the refrigerator, not in the door where temperatures fluctuate more.
