German Word for Juice: Apple, Orange, Lemonade & Tea

I recently blogged the German words for healthy foods. Now let's focus not only on the German word for juice, which is Saft, but on what seems to be a specialty at the market here in Klagenfurt, Austria:

Orange-Karottensaft

Can you guess what that means? Fresh squeezed and grated, it's delicious.

The German names of other typical juices are:

der Apfelsaft - apple juice
der Orangensaft - orange juice
die Limonade - lemonade
der Eistee - iced tea
die Saftbar - juice bar

As you might have guessed, the sometimes-sweltering Austrian August has made me thirsty. Speaking of which, hears another near-cognate:

der Durst - thirst

Have another juice you love? List it in the comments below!
