| I'm not sure how the orange juice interacts with this, although I imagine any orange juice added to bottles of pre-mixed bucks fizz has probably been quite heavily adulterated for longevity anyway, but the main reasons for alcohol having best-before or use by dates is that is stops tasting good, and thus if it were sold without an indication of why it would hurt the brand. There's a side-issue of secondary fermentation in beer, but mainly beer goes flat and stale, or wine's acidity goes out of balance. Generally, it will start tasting unpleasant a good while before it will kill you, since the alcohol helps to slow bacterial development (depending on how dilute it is, of course). Having said which, I've never tried pushing the envelope with bucks fizz. Barring that one awful time. For making your mind up. |
