Fresh Squeezed Juice
Method
Juicing Process
Prepare the Ingredients
Wash the fresh oranges and grapefruit thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.
Cut the Fruits
Cut the oranges and grapefruit in half using a sharp knife. This will make it easier to extract the juice.
Juice the Fruits
Using a citrus juicer or reamer, extract the juice from the oranges and grapefruit halves into a large measuring cup or bowl. Ensure that you collect all the juice and avoid seeds.
Mix with Water and Sugar
In a separate pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed juice with 1 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Chill and Serve
Add ice cubes to the pitcher for immediate serving or refrigerate the juice for about 30 minutes before serving to chill. Pour the fresh squeezed juice into glasses and enjoy!
