Muddy means sediment needed to settle. Too bad. -

Because of the caked sediment that sometimes sticks to the bottle's sides it might be difficult to find a section to get a good glimpse at the juice. Shining light through that caking renders the juice to look cloudy even though it’s rested well enough.
Never open until it's clear. -
