Common questions
How long does carrot juice last in the fridge?
6 days in the refrigerator at 40°F (4°C) or below, according to USDA FoodKeeper data.
Can you freeze carrot juice?
Yes. Frozen at 0°F (−18°C), carrot juice keeps best quality for 12 months. Frozen food stays safe indefinitely; the time is for taste and texture.
How can I tell if carrot juice has gone bad?
Throw it out if you see mold, a slimy texture, an off smell or an odd color. For anything perishable, go by the storage time rather than smell: bacteria that cause food poisoning don't usually change how food looks or smells.
