Which Orange Juice is Actually 100% From Florida?
It should come as no surprise that America loves orange juice. Americans drink close to a billion gallons of orange juice every year and more people purchase orange juice than any other 100 percent fruit juice on the market. But do you know where your juice comes from, or why some taste fresher than others? Usually, the reason it tastes fresher is because it’s 100% Floridian, which you can read more about by clicking here. Some companies label their product “Florida Orange Juice”, while it may not even be from Florida! Here are three Florida companies who guarantee to only produce fresh orange juice 100% from Florida.
Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company
Natalie’s Orange Juice has one ingredient – fresh Florida oranges. Marygrace Sexton started Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company in 1989, naming it after her daughter, and the now booming global company still states family values as the driving commitment to provide customers with clean, authentically-fresh Florida orange juice. This family-operated, women-owned business produces some of the finest juices on the market, and is focused on high-quality, minimally processed juice, squeezed fresh each week.
Indian River Select
Indian River Select was founded by two native Floridians from citrus growing families in 1996 to build a higher quality and better tasting orange juice. Headquartered at Ft. Pierce Farmer’s Market, Indian River only squeezes mid to late season oranges processed in small runs, producing a richer, sweeter taste. All of Indian River Select’s juices are also certified Kosher.
Florida’s Natural (100% Premium Florida Orange Juice)
Florida’s Natural is supplied by Florida’s Natural Growers, one of the largest cooperatives of citrus growers in the world. Organized in 1933, these growers own their land, nurture their fruit, and harvest it at its peak ripeness to squeeze into 100% Florida orange juice. Florida’s Natural prides themselves in providing a 100% pure, not-from-concentrate orange juice with that straight-from-the-grove taste. They do, however, have a “from concentrate” line, so read the label carefully.
Whether it’s a fresh glass of orange juice with breakfast, or an immune booster in the afternoon, fresh Florida orange juice is the way to go!
