    Please answer a question. Is the can 12 fluid oz? Is 1 1/3 c orange juice concentrate mixed With the whole can of water and 1 1/3 c of that is used, or is 1 1/3 c can of orange juice concentrate mixed With 12 oz can of water and all of the liquid is used? I would love to make this, but it is confusing the way it is worded. Thanks for a reply.
