Orange Juice

Section: Fresh Juices

Setup

Serve volume: 250 ml

The source states no tokenised ingredient list for this drink, so no energy or caffeine figure is derived from it.

Applies to: orange juice squeezed to order, strained to preference, served chilled with no added sugar or water.

Target: under 2 minutes from order to serve; consumed within about 15 minutes of squeezing.

Choose heavy, firm oranges that feel dense for their size — these carry the most juice.
Wash the oranges under running water and dry them before halving.
Chill the serving glass and keep the fruit cold so the juice pours cold without dilution.
Sanitize the press or citrus juicer and have a fine strainer within reach.
Keep the recipe card at the station so the strain level and yield stay consistent.

Halve the oranges across the segments and press each half fully.
Roughly 3–4 medium oranges yield about 250 ml — check yield against the recipe card, not by eye.
Strain the juice to the guest's preference — light for pulp-in, fine for pulp-free.
Default to a light strain that removes seeds and membrane but keeps some pulp unless the guest asks otherwise.
Serve chilled with no added sugar, water, or ice unless requested.
Serve at roughly 4–6°C; the sweetness comes from ripe fruit alone, so no syrup is added.
Wipe the press, discard spent halves, and reset the station for the next order.

Juice is bright and freshly colored with no browning — browning signals it has been sitting too long.
Strain level matches the guest's request and the recipe default.
Taste is clean and naturally sweet-tart with no added sugar or water.

Citrus juice oxidizes and turns bitter within minutes — squeeze to order and never carry a pre-squeezed batch through a shift.

No caffeine figure is published for this drink: its record carries no tokenised ingredient list to derive from.
