Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager Have Strong Reaction to Viral Orange Juice Iced Coffee
Jenna Bush Hager and Hoda Kotb
Earlier this week, Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager taste-tested the viral orange juice iced coffee during a "Yuck or Yum?" segment on Today. And their reactions made their opinions about the beverage crystal clear.
On May 30, Kotb and Bush Hager tried two drinks and one dessert live while filming Today With Hoda & Jenna. The dynamic duo first declared the creamy lemonade (muddled lemons and sugar with sweetened condensed milk) a "Yum!"
Next was the orange juice iced coffee, which Today culinary producer Katie Stilo compared to "when you brush your teeth and you take a sip of coffee."
"Oh God, no!" Bush Hager exclaimed after taking a sip and immediately holding up her "Yuck!" sign. "That's really bad."
Kotb then tried the concoction, promptly scrunching up her face and making a loud retching noise.
"Are you OK?" a concerned Bush Hager asked as Kotb continued to make horrible faces. "Did you just burp?"
Meanwhile, Stilo joked, "A demon just came out of Hoda."
"Horrible!" Kotb declared, still trying to recover from the taste.
The third treat the women taste-tested was the Grandma McFlurry from McDonald's, which they also rated as a "Yum!"
On Instagram, the Today With Hoda & Jenna account posted a clip from the orange juice iced coffee tasting, writing, "It’s gonna be a YUCK for us ??."
Folks in the comments responded to the taste test and Kotb and Bush Hager's reactions. One person wrote, "I don't need to drink it to say no.??."

Meanwhile, another fan commented, "Hoda’s reaction to the second one was hilarious!!"
Yet another Instagram user wrote, "I appreciate the honest reactions!! We need the truth??," while someone else joked, "I can feel the acid reflux already ??."
Kudos to Kotb and Bush Hager for taking one for the team. Thanks to their reviews, we have a feeling Today viewers won't be trying orange juice iced coffee anytime soon.
