Frozen Juice Doubles As Sauce 1 Imt little gem of frozen foods, concentrated Florida orange juice, coiwu forth in a new role as a delicious topping for other fruits, in ils undiluted stale! Simple as one-two-three (simply dice or cut up what ever frehli fruits are available, such as melons, pineapple, peaches, berries, then pour the contents of a 6-ounce can of frozen Florida orange juice over the fruit, mix and serve). It makes a gala dessert out of the simplest of ingredients, and you'll be delighted with the tangy flavor of tlio undiluted concentrate when combined with other fruits.
