spremuta

freshly squeezed juice

noun spreh-MOO-tah Rare

Usage Note

Spremuta specifically means juice extracted by squeezing — it always implies freshly squeezed, unlike succo di frutta (packaged fruit juice). The most common order at an Italian bar is una spremuta d'arancia (a fresh orange juice). The word comes from spremere (to squeeze/press). Plural is spremute.

Examples

"Ogni mattina bevo una spremuta d'arancia."

Natural Translation

Every morning I drink a freshly squeezed orange juice.
