Turkey broth should be stored properly to prevent spoilage. After opening, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate immediately. It will generally stay fresh for 3-4 days in the refrigerator. For longer storage, freeze the broth in freezer-safe containers or ice cube trays for easy portioning. Frozen broth can last for several months. Always check for any signs of spoilage, such as an off odor or discoloration, before using.
