tuoremehu

1. A natural or close-to-natural fruit or vegetable juice, especially orange juice.
2. (law) A juice produced by mechanical means from fruit or vegetables (täysmehu) that has not been treated with heat (e.g. by pasteurizing). A product called tuoremehu may contain up to 150 grams added sugar per liter of juice.

• As orange is the original and still dominant source of commercially sold juice, many associate the word primarily with orange juice.
