Fresh Orange Juice

Ingredients

• 6 oranges
• 1 tbsp sugar (optional, to taste)
• Ice cubes

Method

1. Halve the oranges and juice them using a citrus juicer or by hand, straining out the seeds as you go.
2. Taste the juice — ripe oranges are often sweet enough on their own, so add sugar only if needed.
3. Stir well if sugar is added, until fully dissolved.
4. Pour over ice in glasses.
5. Serve immediately for the freshest flavour, as fresh orange juice loses its brightness quickly.
