    As long as celery juice is the sole ingredient, it freezes and thaws without separating or changing consistency or flavor. Leave some extra room in the container when freezing, as the juice may expand. You can also try freezing the juice in ice cube trays and storing the cubes in freezer-safe plastic bags or other containers.

    On the Other: Other Ingredients May Be Affected

    If the celery juice is intended for use in a soup, avoid adding most of the other ingredients until after thawing. Most other vegetables and vegetable juices will also freeze well, but potatoes and fresh greens will change consistency when frozen. Spices may also change flavor when frozen; their flavor may become stronger, more bitter or even be lost. Avoid adding any spices or flavorings until after thawing.

    Bottom Line

    You can freeze and thaw celery juice alone with no problems. Be careful about adding other ingredients prior to freezing, as some foods and spices may change consistency or flavor as a result of freezing and thawing.
