I keep some frozen Minute Maid concentrated O.J. in the freezer. The idea is to scoop some out to add to cooking that calls for O.J. or to give something a bit of orange flavour. After seeing how many oranges it takes to make a glass of oj from fresh juice oranges, I decided to just eat oranges and keep all that extra sugar out of my diet.I stay away from sugar in a glass, it's a health concern I can't ignore. Aside from that, just squeeze some fresh.
Add a split (187ml) botttle of Proseco and you'll drink it a whole lot more often!Tropicana and Florida’s own are what I get. But I don’t drink it much anymore.

Yeah, we have decent oranges. I use to drink tropicana back in the day.Honestly, I expected at least one person to say what you just Said.
Maybe in your world, there are plenty of really good fresh oranges to buy and squeeze at the grocery store, every day, of every week, of every year. Where live, we have Texas Ruby Red Grapefruit available all year long. and they are the best grapefruit on the planet. But, grocery store oranges are hit and miss.
You can buy OJ that has added sugar, but if you take the time and spend a bit more money to buy it., you can get some decent OJ, too. If you offer enough money to Gordon Ramsay, he'd probably endorse some sugar in a glass. But, for normals like me, I'm able to pick out some bottled OJ that isn't going to kill me.

Back in the day in our house it was frozen concentrate and later when I was on my own I bought tropicana, I liked the taste but drinking orange juice wasn't a ritual and probably bought tropicana, maybe twice a year, my sweet tooth where desserts and I indulged a lot, too much and paying for it now though.I think what people fail to realize is that a 1 cup serving of orange juice is ;not the equivalent of one orange but more. Depending on the brand it could be even more than 2. this is insofar as calories and other nutrients one orange couild supply.
Growing up we had what we called "juice glasses" which might have held 6 oz to the very brim but was probably filled to about 4 or 5 oz. People are now drinking huge glasses.
I love grapefruit but a bit on the expensive side. I watch for specials. LOL also 'back in the day' once the grapefruit was halved it was served sprinkled with sugar!
Look up the nutritional comparison of an orange and a grapefruit.... and which one is better?
