Why do I like ice in all my glasses of fruit juices, but in orange juice it grosses me out?

[Rabrrrrrr]

What the hell is up with that?

I like my juice over ice, no matter what the juice is, except orange juice grosses me out if it has ice in it. Even orange juice without pulp.

:shrug:

1. My dear Rabrrrrrr...

I'm the same way, and I have no idea why!

It is weird, isn't it?

Oh, well...a happy Saturday to you!

:hug:

2. now that you mention it, i dont like OJ over ice either

i like apple/cranberry etc over ice just not OJ

[Left Is Write]

3. I don't want ice in my orange juice either.

But I could see drinking cranberry juice, grape juice, fruit punch, etc. with ice.

Hmmm. Wonder why that is.

4. I think it affects the taste and texture.

I'm not sure how to describe it accurately, but the ice makes the juice taste bitter and sort of slimy.

5. But ice is tolerable if there's vodka in the glass too

just an observation.

cheers.

[trof]

6. Nor in my tomato juice, unless it's a Bloody Mary.

[KitchenWitch]

7. HMMM

I am the same way...

[bicentennial_baby]

8. I like crushed ice in OJ

:shrug:

9. I like ice in my orange juice, unless it's fresh-squeezed

and then I'll stand for absolutely nothing else in the glass except for the pure, wonderful juice. If it's Florida Natural or some other juice in a carton (though NOT from concentrate - blech) I like ice.

I just like ice in my drinks, period. Unless, of course, they're meant to be served hot. Except no ice in beer, obviously. Grody. My husband despises ice in anything.


edited for grammar.

10. reserve one ice cube tray for frozen OJ

or cranberry juice!

11. Maybe orange juice is a little bit thicker...

And when you put ice in, it makes it water down.
Tomato juice is the same way.

Just a thought...

12. Oranges are tropical, and can't take ice

I thought you'd know that.

:)

[texas1928]

13. But then why do they freeze concentrate?

WELL?













:P

14. I never saw anyone put ice in OJ until I went to college

and the first time I saw someone do it in the cafeteria, I thought it was disgusting. Then I thought "Why not?" and tried it. It was okay. So, now, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. I'm surprisingly flexible.

Have you tried it? Not bad, really.

Btw, how's your relative who was injured in Iraq?

15. Because you're fookin' weird?

Tomato juice is the one you don't want with ice.

OJ is fine with ice. And most any fruit juice is good cut half and half with sparkling water, ginger ale or even sprite or equivalent. On the rocks.
