Fresh orange juice is a vibrant, naturally sweet beverage made from the juice of ripe oranges. Originating from citrus-growing regions, particularly those with warm climates like the Mediterranean or Florida, it’s a staple in breakfast and brunch menus across various cuisines. Packed with vitamin C, it supports immune health and acts as a powerful antioxidant. It also provides potassium for heart health and folate for cell function. Being a natural source of hydration, it contains no added sugars when freshly squeezed, making it a healthier option compared to processed juices. However, it is naturally high in fructose, which should be consumed in moderation by individuals managing their sugar intake. Fresh orange juice is best enjoyed in its pure form or as an ingredient in smoothies and dressings, making it versatile and nutritious while offering a refreshing taste of sunshine in every sip.
