I'm noticing this thread is completely missing the point that common fruit drinks (high calorie, nutritious, safe origin), which was a convenient way of storing fruit (just squeeze & filter), would immediately start fermenting. Other than water (often unsafe) or milk (goes bad quickly), about the only shelf-stable beverages were self-fermenting.
