Many consumers would be quite surprised to know that the pareve-certified orange juice and iced tea that they enjoy are often manufactured on dairy equipment, and that this equipment was kashered to be rendered pareve for the production of these beverages. The fact is that the pasteurization and filling equipment used in dairies for milk is ideal for all types of drinks, and dairy factories therefore frequently produce a wide variety of non-dairy beverages. There are actually very few types of pareve beverages that can be assumed to be manufactured exclusively in pareve plants; fruit juice, punch, iced tea and coffee, plus lemonade - whether made as 'national' brands or as 'heimishe', Jewish brands - are all prone to be processed on dairy equipment which was kashered under the supervision or direction of a kashrus agency. http://www.oukosher.org/index.php/common/article/the_complex_story_of_pareve_orange_juice/
