Juices have an ambient shelf-life of 18 months from production, and Syrups have a shelf-life of 24 months from production. Product does not "go bad" when it hits the date code on the bottom of the bottle; it is a "recommended use-by" date. Syrups & juices will last about a month after opening if refrigerated, but we recommend consuming them sooner rather than later for the best flavor and color. …ALWAYS refrigerate after opening!
