The oranges are being picked and processed right now. I picked up a gallon of fresh orange juice in Fort Pierce on Thursday. It is not frozen, re-constituted or anything. This local stuff is not even pasteurized. That makes a significant difference. The heat changes the flavor and texture. It is necessary for everything but local usage - but dayum this stuff is good.
It is pure awesomeness. All I can say is the best stuff you can find in your local stores in just a shadow of how good fresh-from-the-groves orange juice is.
In Fort Pierce, the juice is mostly a mix of Hamlin and Valencia oranges. You have to use it up quickly due to the lack of pasteurization.
