Method

Juicing Process

  1. 1

    Preparing the Oranges

    Wash the fresh oranges thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticide residue.

  2. 2

    Cutting the Oranges

    Using a sharp knife, cut each orange in half horizontally to expose the juicy segments.

  3. 3

    Juicing the Oranges

    Using a manual juicer or an electric juicer, press down on each half of the orange to extract the juice. Collect the juice in a measuring cup or pitcher.

  4. 4

    Straining (Optional)

    If you prefer pulp-free juice, pour the extracted juice through a fine mesh strainer into another container to remove any pulp or seeds.

  5. 5

    Sweetening (Optional)

    If desired, add sugar to the juice and stir well until dissolved. Adjust sweetness to taste.

  6. 6

    Serving

    Pour the freshly squeezed orange juice into a glass. If desired, add ice cubes for a chilled beverage.
