Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
-
Ice cubes (for chilling)
-
Optional fruit slices (orange, lemon, or berries for garnish)
Instructions
-
Chill the Juice
Start with well-chilled Kirkland Signature Orange Juice. The cold temperature helps enhance the natural citrus flavor and keeps the drink crisp and refreshing. -
Prepare Your Glass or Pitcher
Fill a glass or serving pitcher with ice cubes. If you’re serving guests, consider adding thin slices of orange or lemon to the glass for a vibrant touch. -
Pour and Serve
Slowly pour the chilled orange juice over the ice. This keeps the juice cold and ensures a smooth, refreshing texture. -
Optional Enhancements
-
Stir in honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter drink.
-
Add fresh mint leaves or a few berries for an extra burst of flavor.
-
For a zesty twist, add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice.
-
-
Serve Immediately
Enjoy your refreshing drink as it is or pair it with a light breakfast or brunch.
Notes
-
For a smoother taste, skip the ice if you prefer a less diluted juice.
-
Substitutions: If you’re looking to experiment, try using pineapple juice or grapefruit juice in place of the orange juice for a tropical variation.
-
Storage: If you have leftovers, store the juice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir before serving as it may separate slightly.
