The drink is a "healthier" spin-off of the popular Florida orange juice and contains 50 per cent less sugar.

Fermentation is a natural process that converts sugar into acids, gasses or alcohols, used to make beer, apple cider and ginger ale.

Tests by the firm found that there are no food safety issues as a result of the fermentation so it shouldn't cause any health problems.

But it will make the juice taste sour and fizzy.

THE brand behind Tropicana, PepsiCo, has warned that affected bottles have a best before the date of October 14 2018.
