Freezing the juice is probably a safer option. Some yeasts can still
ferment in the 40 F range of a typical fridge. They slow way down, but
still ferment.

I was using concentrate so felt pretty confident there was not much in
the way of active yeast in there. If you use fresh juice, this may not
be the case and the freezer temps would insure nothing grows.
