On Following Directions

I'm usually a pretty good follower of directions. I also like my orange juice a little strong, so I always leave out about 1/2 can of the recommended water. But, all brands are different, so I always look at the directions to see if it suggests 3 cans, 3 1/2 cans, 4 cans, etc.

When I flipped the orange juice can around this morning to see how many of cans of water to add, I was surprised by the semantics:


CONTAINS 100% ORANGE JUICE WHEN MIXED ACCORDING TO DIRECTIONS.
So, if I add just a little too much, or not enough water, what it is?
Orange water?
Orange sludge?

    haha....I'm guessing it means to say "Hey, Dummy, if you mix this with Alcohol, it is not Orange Juice, it's a screwdriver, tequila sunrise, or a mimosa."
