Orange juice recipes. Get away from the plain ol' OJ.  

Fresh orange juice recipes are the best. There's nothing like it on the planet.  Great for breakfast or a juicy snack.

By law in the USA, juices in cartons must be pasteurized (heated) and when this happens, vitamins and minerals are depleted.

It’s also been brought to light more recently that the juice contains flavor packets and sit in storage facilities for a long period of time. If you love orange juice, juice your own. It’s safer and has many more health benefits.

Do not juice the rind of oranges in your orange juice recipes. They contain indigestible oils that can irritate the stomach. Peel first. I prefer to cut the peel off as I think it’s quicker, but that’s just my preference.

I love taking fresh OJ juiced with a small knob of ginger and pouring mineral water over top of it in a glass. So refreshing! But if you want some more ideas...just look below.
