1
Prepare the Oranges
Wash the oranges thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.
2
Cut the Oranges
Using a sharp knife, cut the oranges in half horizontally.
3
Juice the Oranges
Using a manual or electric juicer, extract the juice from the halved oranges. If you prefer to use your hands, simply squeeze each half over a bowl to catch the juice.
4
Strain the Juice (Optional)
If you prefer a pulp-free juice, pour the extracted juice through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher.

5
Add Sugar (Optional)
If you like your juice sweeter, add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the juice and stir until dissolved.
6
Add Salt (Optional)
Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.

7
Serve the Juice
Pour the freshly squeezed orange juice into glasses. If desired, add ice cubes to the glasses for a chilled drink.
