natural liquid used as a drink
Liquid from fruit, vegetables, or meat, usually used as a drink or in food.
用法パターン：
drink [juice]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes treat "juice" only as countable. Use the uncountable form for the general liquid (e.g., "some juice", "a glass of juice"), and the countable form mainly when talking about different kinds or containers (e.g., "three juices" meaning three bottles or flavors).
類義語
drink (More general; can be any liquid you drink, not only natural liquid from fruit or vegetables.)
対義語
solid food (Refers to food that is not in liquid form.)

Strong drugs that people use to get bigger muscles or better sports results, especially steroids.

To take the liquid out of fruit or vegetables, usually with your hands or a machine.

Learners may overuse this verb in formal writing. In serious or formal texts, verbs like "increase", "stimulate", or "boost" are usually better than "juice".
