FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

What makes the Ingrilli® Organic lemon and Lime Squeeze so flavorful?

Our Ingrilli® Organic Lemon Squeeze and Ingrilli® Organic Lime Squeeze are squeezed from the highest-quality organic fruit, and they never contain ‘from concentrate juice’ or chemical preservatives. 

Additionally, the 4 ounce and 7 ounce bottles of Ingrilli® Lemon and Lime squeezes have a small reservoir inside the bottle cap that contains essential organic lemon oil or organic lime oil – depending on the product – that has been captured from the peel during the squeezing process. When the juice is squeezed out of these bottles, a tiny bit of that oil is squeezed out as well, giving you an extra kick of citrus aroma and fresh-off-the-tree flavor.

What are the benefits of using the Ingrilli® juices instead of fresh lemon or limes?

With Ingrilli® juices, you get all the flavor and versatility of fresh lemons and limes with none of the mess – and you can easily refrigerate any unused juice for later use. 

These tasty Ingrilli® lemon and lime juices can be used for cooking, baking, salads and drink mixers. Some even use them for cleaning!

What is the juice strength and flavor profile of the Ingrilli® Juices?

All Ingrilli® juices have the same taste and flavor profile as fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice. They are not lemonade or limeade beverages.

What can Ingrilli® lemon juice be used for?

Ingrilli® lemon juice is highly flavorful, and it can be used for multiple purposes. Most commonly, it’s used as an ingredient to enhance flavor while cooking or baking. Alternatively, it can be used for cleaning.

Are Ingrilli® juices organic?

These organic juices are bottled on a completely separate production line than our traditional products. They are certified organic by Bioagricert – an accredited certifying agency under the USDA’s National Organic Program – and they carry the USDA Organic seal on the label.

Do Ingrilli® juices contain GMO (genetically modified) ingredients?

No. We strongly believe in the importance of high-quality, wholesome foods. That is why Ingrilli® juices are made exclusively from non-GMO ingredients. It’s also why all of our juices are verified by the Non-GMO Project.

Are Ingrilli® juices kosher?

All our juices are certified kosher by the highly popular OU Kosher certification agency, and all of the juices carry the OU Kosher logo on the label. All our juices are kosher pareve.

Are Ingrilli® juices vegan?

None of our juices contain any animal-sourced ingredients, and we do not use any animal-sourced aides in the production process. That is why all of our juices are certified vegan by the Vegan Awareness Foundation.

Do Ingrilli® juices contain gluten?

All Ingrilli® juices are gluten-free per FDA guidelines. We exclusively produce citrus fruit juices in our production facilities, and we don’t produce anything that contains gluten or gluten ingredients. That means that there is no risk for cross-contact with gluten in our production facilities.

Are Ingrilli® juices free of allergens?

In our production facilities, we exclusively produce juices. We never produce any products that contain ingredients sourced from milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, or sesame. As a result, none of these allergens are present as cross-contacts in our production facilities. In addition: 

Are Ingrilli® juices pasteurized?

All of our juices are flash pasteurized – heated to kill harmful microorganisms, then quickly re-cooled – in a few seconds. This ensures that we can provide a safe product without compromising quality or taste.

Do Ingrilli® juices have any added sugars?

None of our Ingrilli® juices contain any added sugars.

Where can I find nutrition information?

All Ingrilli® juices have a nutrition panel printed on the label. Alternatively, the nutrition information can also be found on our product pages here:

Are the bottles BPA (bisphenol-A) free?

Yes, all of our bottles are BPA-free.

Is the Ingrilli® juice packaging recyclable?

Yes.

  • Our plastic bottles are 100% recyclable and are made from PET plastic, widely identified as recycling #1. Ingrilli® is proud to be the first-to-market in this category with a bottle made of 50% recycled materials. The plastic type and recycling number is clearly marked on the bottom of each bottle of Ingrilli® juice. 
  • Our glass bottles are 100% recyclable. Remove the label prior to recycling the glass bottle. 
  • PET plastics and glass bottles are commonly recycled at local recycling facilities and used in programs to create new ‘from recycled material’ items.

We can all further help the environment by always recycling any and all recyclable materials after use.

What is the serving size for the Ingrilli® juice products?

A single serving of Ingrilli® lemon juice, lime juice, and ginger squeeze blend is one teaspoon (5mL).

Why is the serving size of the lemon and lime juice labeled as 5mL, and with zero calories and carbohydrates?

FDA regulations require that we list lemon and lime juice serving size as 5mL = one TSP (one teaspoon). They also require that we list the nutrition information panel information based on that regulated size. While lemon and lime juice are not a zero calorie or zero carb food, the small serving size required by the regulation ultimately brings the values to zero.

How do I open the Ingrilli® plastic squeeze bottles?

We have two options:

  • The 4 & 7 fl oz bottles have a small lid that lifts up after the tamper-evident seal is removed. The tamper-evident seal comes off easily just by ripping it off the edge of the cap. The bottle cap is not a twist-off cap. See this photo.
  • The 16 & 32 fl oz bottles have a twist-off cap with a tamper-evident seal inside that must be removed before use. The tamper-evident seal comes off easily just by placing a finger inside the small tab and removing it.
How long can I keep an opened bottle of Ingrilli® juice?

To maintain freshness, we recommend that you refrigerate your Ingrilli® juice after opening, and that you use it within 30 days. Always enjoy before the “best by” date printed on the label.

Do Ingrilli® juices need to be refrigerated?

Ingrilli® juices are shelf-stable and can be stored in ambient temperatures. That said, to maintain maximum freshness, we recommend storing in a cool dry space, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Refrigerate and use within 30 days after opening, and use before the “best by” date printed on each bottle.

Why does my latest Ingrilli® juice purchase have a slightly different flavor or color than the last bottle I bought?

All fresh fruits naturally have slight differences in taste and color based on where they’re grown and what time of the year they are picked from the tree. We do not mix juice batches or add any hidden ingredients not listed on the label, which means that each batch of Ingrilli® juice can have slight variations in color or flavor.

Why do Ingrilli® juices separate a bit inside the bottle?

Natural juices contain a small percentage of pulp, and juice separation is normal. Gently shake before use.

What are the countries of origin of the Ingrilli® juices?
Do you use actual Sicilian Lemon Juice, or is it just a name?

We are proud to grow, harvest, squeeze, and bottle Ingrilli® 100% Organic Lemon Juice and Ingrilli® Organic Lemon Squeeze directly on our own orchards in Sicily. That is why we can proudly label each bottle as made with pure Sicilian Lemon juice. No brand naming or product naming tricks, no misleading label designs, and no confusing claims about where our juice comes from.

Are your lime products from Sicily?

No, limes in general do not grow in Sicily. That said, our Ingrilli® 100% Organic Lime Juice, Ingrilli®​ Organic Lime Squeeze and Ingrilli® 100% Lime Juice are bottled in Sicily, and each juice’s country of origin can be found both on the product pages and on each juice’s product label.
