Juice the Oranges
Using a manual citrus juicer or an electric juicer, press each half of the orange down firmly to extract the juice. Collect the juice in a pitcher or bowl.

Strain (Optional)
If you prefer a smoother juice, pour the extracted juice through a fine mesh strainer to remove pulp and seeds.

Add Lemon Juice (Optional)
For a tangy twist, add lemon juice to the orange juice and mix well.
