tuoremehu
Finnish edit
Etymology edit
tuore (“fresh”) + mehu (“juice”), originally introduced as trade name for natural fruit juices.
Pronunciation edit
Noun edit
tuoremehu
- A natural or close-to-natural fruit or vegetable juice, especially orange juice.
- (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.
Usage notes edit
- In common speech, tuoremehu and täysmehu are practically synonymous, although they are defined as different products in so called mehuasetus (“juice decree”).
- As orange is the original and still dominant source of commercially sold juice, many associate the word primarily with orange juice.
