Lukewarm Orange Juice?

I am a bit odd when it comes to orange juice. I pour orange juice and then have to let it sit for a few minutes. It tastes better when it is not iced cold.
I haven't tried this with freshly squeezed orange juice, just the "not from concentrate" concentrated stuff.
AM I alone in this or do you do this with orange juice or other juices?

I don't know why but I just can't seem to consume ice cold orange juice. It just does not taste as good to me.

No, I prefer soft drinks cold - but due to being stored in the fridge, not because of ice cubes, which I often avoid.

@asfarasiknow unfiltered water? Chemical contamination? I haven't actually thought about this before.

Soft drinks I do like cold. I put my canned sodas in the fridge. Ice just tends to melt the drink before I get around to drinking it all.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Ice cubes in pubs and restaurants can sometimes be a health risk.

I don't really drink much juice at all actually. I've recently given up soda and am mostly drinking water with lemon.. which I prefer to drink cold!

Yes warm water with lemon would not be good at all. I need to give up sodas. I was doing so well for a long while but then recently started buying the small cans of sodas.

@ScribbledAdNauseum It's tough because sometimes you just want something with a little flavor instead of water but there aren't many choices if you're not a juice drinker.

I must drink my orange juice cold from the fridge or with some ice. Never room
Temperate or warm lol.

It's just way too cold for me straight from the fridge, and as crazy as it sounds? It doesn't taste good so cold.

I don't think I could do the lukewarm thing for my orange juice.

lukewarm was probably the wrong word for it. Room temperature is a better word for it.

If it's too cold it's just not as refreshing to me, and I have a bit of a sensitivity in my gums that doesn't help matters either. I don't drink much orange juice in the summer for some reason.

Orange juice definitely tastes better at room temperature (not sure about 'lukewarm', though). If you are squeezing oranges, you get more juice from them if they are warm.

Lukewarm wasn't the exact word I wanted to use for it. Yes, room temperature is better. I've not freshly squeezed an orange for juice in years.

It is definitely better to eat oranges when they are still fresh. Orange juice (especially which is already treated with perservatives) is a little different. Probably not so much safe though.

I rarely drink anything, ice cold. When I am offered water in a restaurant, I always request, No ice.

They do tend to over do the ice in restaurants. At restaurants, however, I do prefer ice in my beverages.

Lukewarm may not have been the right word for it. I mean slightly less than lukewarm but not too cold either.
