Why use fresh Juice Oranges?
Juice Oranges from Pearson Ranch are the way to go when you’re ready to skip the…”store bought, pasteurized, God only knows where the oranges came from, bad for the environment, plastic bottle nonsense.” You already know that making your own orange juice always tastes way better than pre-bottled juice. But here’s something you may not know about buying “grocery store” orange juice…
Buying previously squeezed orange juice can be convenient, but did you know, store bought orange juice must be pasteurized? And that boils out essential vitamins? So not only is the fresh juice that you make yourself more delicious, it also contains 50% more Vitamin C! Fresh juice also has 2 1/2 times more beta carotene than processed juice. And now more than ever, it’s even more important to keep up with your health! So why not make fresh squeezed, Vitamin C’ packed Orange Juice a part of your daily health regimen? Save a little money in the process too, when buying these lower priced juice oranges. Besides…it’s so easy squeezy!
What are Juice Oranges?
Juice Oranges aren’t always the “belle of the ball” in the world of fresh produce. Juice Oranges can have scars, be oddly shaped, minor sun damage or even show signs of ice or hail marks. However, like so many things of beauty, it’s really what’s on the inside that counts most! Of course juice oranges for making your own fresh squeezed orange juice, are certainly no exception. Don’t think for a minute that these oranges are not as sweet and delicious as our Premium Grade Oranges. The only difference is, these oranges aren’t quite “pretty enough” to make it into our Premium box of Oranges.
Of course the price is a little less due to their cosmetic blemishes. But when you couple that with oranges that are bursting with delicious sweet juice and flavor…talk about a “WIN-WIN”? These oranges are sure to make your morning glass of sweet, tree ripened, and “oh so good for you” orange juice the best you’ve ever made!
Juice Oranges Are Great For Eating Too!
Some people believe that “juice oranges” are merely for making orange juice. Well, that couldn’t be further from the truth! Juice oranges can be peeled, sectioned, and cut up and enjoyed by the whole family as the perfect, nutritious anytime treat! Take them to the park, the beach, camping, the ball game or anyplace else you want to enjoy some delicious “California Sunshine!“
Something special about Oranges in Summer…Did you know that in the summer months perfectly ripe Oranges, while still hanging on the tree can start to once again show shades of green color? In the world of citrus farming it is called “re-greening”. Simply stated, the warm daytime temperatures may cause reabsorption of chlorophyll back into the skin of the orange, causing the partial green color to occur. However, rest assured, in no way does it affect the deliciously sweet, tangy flavor!
