Juice Ingredients

Method

Juicing Process

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oranges

    Wash the fresh oranges thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides. Cut each orange in half using a sharp knife.

  2. 2

    Juice the Oranges

    Using a citrus juicer, extract juice from the halved oranges until you have approximately 6 cups of orange juice. Strain the juice through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp and seeds, if desired.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pitcher or bowl, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice, 4 cups of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 cup of lemon juice. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  4. 4

    Chill and Serve

    Add 2 cups of ice cubes to the pitcher or bowl to chill the juice. Stir again before serving. Pour the orange juice into glasses and enjoy!
