Choose a glass-bottle apple drink if you also want something sparkling: Ocado lists Appletiser 750ml as sparkling apple juice from concentrate in a glass bottle. If you need still juice for breakfasts or a shared fridge, choose by drink style and pack size before assuming it comes in glass; Ocado lists Tropicana Pressed Apple 1.5L in a carton. Check the material of the exact pack you intend to buy.
The useful starting point is whether glass packaging, a still breakfast juice or portion size matters most for this shop.
If the container matters as much as the drink, check the exact product rather than relying on a brand or a photograph. Ocado explicitly identifies its Appletiser 750ml listing as a glass bottle, but it is a sparkling drink.
For breakfasts or shared use, start with still versus sparkling and a pack size you expect to use. Ocado lists the 1.5L Tropicana Pressed Apple product in a carton, so it will not meet a glass-packaging preference.
A bottle’s total volume is not a suggested serving. For 5 A Day, the NHS advises limiting fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies to a combined 150ml a day; compare the nutrition information per 100ml as well as the pack size.
Choose it when: You want both glass packaging and a fizzy apple drink; Ocado confirms both for Appletiser 750ml.
Bear in mind: This Appletiser product is sparkling juice from concentrate, not a still breakfast juice.
Choose it when: A still drink and a larger fridge pack matter more than the container; Ocado lists Tropicana Pressed Apple in a 1.5L format.
Bear in mind: That particular Tropicana pack is a carton, not a glass bottle.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Glass packaging | Look for an explicit material description on the exact pack. Ocado calls Appletiser 750ml a glass bottle but describes its Copella pack only as a bottle. | I want to know the container is glass before adding it to my first shop; the word ‘bottle’ alone is not enough. |
| Drink style | Check for sparkling or still, then read whether the juice is from concentrate. Ocado describes Appletiser as sparkling and Tropicana Pressed Apple 1.5L as not from concentrate. | For breakfast, I am looking for still juice rather than a fizzy apple drink. |
| Pack size and storage | Compare the stated volume with how much you expect to use. Check the exact pack’s refrigeration and after-opening instructions. | A larger pack makes sense for my household only if we have fridge space and expect to finish it as directed. |
| Portions and sugars | Read sugars per 100ml on the nutrition panel. Ocado lists 10.5g per 100ml for Appletiser and 10g per 100ml for its Copella apple juice; these are different products, not interchangeable serving sizes. | I want to compare what I would pour, not just bottle volumes. For 5 A Day, the NHS advises a combined limit of 150ml a day for fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies. |
Ocado identifies its Copella apple-juice pack as a bottle without specifying the material, whereas its Appletiser 750ml listing explicitly says glass bottle. The distinction matters if glass is a firm preference.
Check the material on the exact product listing or the pack in store; do not decide from the photograph alone.
Ocado describes Appletiser as sparkling juice from concentrate and its 1.5L Tropicana Pressed Apple product as juice not from concentrate. A glass container does not tell you which style is inside.
Choose the drink style first, then compare packaging and pack size.
The NHS advises a combined 150ml daily limit for fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies for 5 A Day purposes. It also notes that sugars released by juicing can damage teeth.
Check the nutrition panel per 100ml and think about the amount you plan to pour, rather than treating a large bottle as a guide to portion size.
These examples show why a familiar name or a broad juice range cannot, by itself, confirm the packaging of the product in your basket.
Ocado lists Appletiser 750ml as sparkling apple juice from concentrate in a glass bottle.
Ocado describes its Copella apple juice as cloudy and says it can separate on standing.
Ocado lists Tropicana Pressed Apple 1.5L as juice not from concentrate, with ten 150ml servings stated for that pack.
Tesco Groceries lists own-brand apple juice alongside Copella and Tropicana in its apple-juice range.
Sainsbury's lists own-brand pure and pressed apple juices as well as Copella options.
M&S lists cloudy and single-variety apple-juice options, including Collection Pressed Pink Lady Apple Juice in 350ml and 1L sizes.
This option is a 750ml sparkling apple drink for shoppers considering a fizzy choice; confirm the pack material on the exact product if glass is essential.

Consider this 750ml sparkling apple drink if you want a fizzy option rather than still breakfast juice. If your choice depends on glass packaging or the sugars per 100ml, check those details on the exact pack before buying.
No. Ocado lists Appletiser 750ml in a glass bottle, but describes the drink as sparkling apple juice from concentrate. Read the drink description separately from the packaging details.
The NHS advises limiting fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies to a combined 150ml a day for 5 A Day purposes. Bottle size is not a measure of how many portions to count.
No single processing style resolves this shopping choice. Ocado describes its Tropicana Pressed Apple 1.5L product as not from concentrate, while its glass-bottle Appletiser 750ml is sparkling juice from concentrate. Decide whether you want still or sparkling, then compare the exact packs.
Check your council’s instructions for glass bottles and their lids before putting them out. Kerbside collection rules vary locally, so a general listing of drink bottles does not confirm what your household collection accepts.
