We have a grapefruit tree in our yard and had over 200 grapefruit this year. While we gave many away, we didn't want to throw them out or waste so I juiced them and froze the juice. I used leftover plastic containers however some of the ones I used turned out to be a poor choice. When I ran out of V8 and old Tropicana OJ containers, I began using liter coke bottles and water bottles. The water bottles seem to have reacted with the grapefruit juice in the freezer because the juice tasted awful--it had a chemical taste. I am going to thaw the liter cola bottles and see how they fared. I got about 10 liters of grapefruit so it appears much of my work may have been in vain. I haven't found any good information on this topic but will keep looking. This is just my own experience.

Freezing fresh squeezed juice in an ice tray is indeed the best way to freeze fresh-squeezed juices, which are essential to quality cocktails.
