We only have it if company comes, and then we have it for a few days until all is consumed.

Never. We're not big juice drinkers and I don't really know anyone who is.

"Rarely" for me. We do like to have orange juice at Christmas because we always have cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning and juice just seems to go well with those. Also, we like to make mimosas on New Year's with the leftover champagne, so we buy OJ for that also. That's about it though.

My husband has juice every morning. He's never been a coffee drinker - actually now that I think about it, same with my son. They both still drink juice every morning with breakfast. My daughter and I swill too much coffee.

Maybe 1-2 times a year…and usually with champagne because we are having mimosas.

Only if I buy it. Some weeks I do, some I don't.
I'm strange in that if I'm having something hot for breakfast or lunch (like eggs and toast), I LOVE a cold glass of cran-grape juice to go with it, and then I'll have coffee after. I don't like having both a warm meal and warm drink. I think it's the salt of the eggs and refreshing taste of the juice I really like.

Juice is just a huge sugar dump. so no, we only have it in the house when one of our sons-in-law is staying - or sometimes at Christmas with some fizz  |

Another never here. Since it is so full of sugar I am thankful I never developed the habit.

Never. I'd rather not have that huge sugar spike especially at breakfast.

Rarely, I generally only buy it if I need it for a recipe or cocktails. Otherwise only for Christmas breakfast. Dh doesn't drink juice. DD loves it but is type 1 diabetic so shouldn't drink it often and I try to avoid the calories as too love juice.

I'm another NEVER.
I find juice is just pure sugar with relatively no nutritional value. I may be wrong.

It's much better to eat the whole fruit than to just drink the juice.
In general, coffee isn't bad as long as you don't load it up with sugar.

growing up - always a glass of orange juice with meals and my mum continued that until she passed in 2019 so when she visited, I always bought orange juice
Now - I buy it for the holidays maybe as special treat to go with cinnamon rolls or stollen. But that's it.

the only time I drink juice is when I make mimosas and that is very infrequently. Otherwise, I should have it in my house for my mom who is diabetic but I never remember at the store.

I occasionally drink about an inch of (no sugar added) OJ in a big glass with ice and lots of club soda ... I'm into fizzy drinks!
I do this with (50% less sugar) cranberry juice and lemonade too ... so good!
But mostly I drink Perrier ... not juice ...

Never. Bothers dd's GERD, I am allergic to lemons and oranges, and it gives DH the burps.
I used to love getting V8 as a kid at restaurants along with a glass of milk.

Maybe not every day, but I try to have about 6 oz of orange juice in the mornings. I need the potassium, and it's a good source. The sugar also helps me not crave a soda later.

I used to drink orange juice a lot but in the past several years, it causes canker sores in my mouth.

I’ll have it occasionally. Sometimes i’ll drink a glass during the afternoon if I need a sugar/energy fix. I don’t drink soda. But, it is not a regular part of my diet.

Only if it is mixed with Prosecco.
I don't think I have kept juice in the house since my children were toddlers.
