Frozen juices are packaged in itty bitty cans because folks mix the
entire amount at once, no one uses frozen concentrate to make one
serving at a time... even if I needed some concentrate for a recipe I
still would mix the remainder with water, and vodka... (preservative!)
Btw, tinned foods (once opened) should not be stored in their tin,
transfer to glass or plastic. I once saved up a bunch of frozen juice
concentrate cardboard cans for making ice pops, most can only be used
once as during freezing the crimp at the metal bottom opens.
