I'd go with adjective phrase. An appositive is like an interruption to give more information generally. At least with an adjective phrase you can say "What kind of juice is it? Orange" orange being the adjective

It wouldn't make sense for it to be an appositive phrase because it's not really giving us more situation. It's giving us an object of the sentence
