<h3> Ingredients</h3>

The ingredients for this drink are straightforward: you'll need coffee (espresso or strongly brewed), and orange juice. That's all!

While we usually prefer orange juice with lots of pulp, we suggest using pulp-free orange juice for this drink. The pulp can affect the taste when mixed with coffee.

Also, it's best to let the coffee cool a bit before pouring it into the orange juice.

<h3> How to make coffee and orange juice</h3>

It's easy! Start by pouring a glass of orange juice over ice—adjust the amount to your taste and experiment with ratios.

We suggest using about 6 oz. of orange juice and adding around 2 oz. of espresso or strong coffee. Initially, the coffee may float on top, but it'll soon blend beautifully with the orange juice.

Before sipping, give it a good stir for the full effect.

Still skeptical? Just take a sip. And... surprised? It's actually pretty good, right?

The combination of espresso and orange juice creates a complex yet harmonious flavor. The sweetness of the orange juice pairs surprisingly well with the bitterness of the coffee, resulting in a delightful taste experience.

<h3> What if this drink isn't strong enough for us?</h3>

If you're a coffee aficionado and want to preserve its strong flavor, feel free to adjust the ratios in this recipe. Personally, we enjoy this drink with equal parts orange juice and coffee.

You can also try making an iced coffee and simply adding a splash of juice. There are plenty of ways to customize it to your liking!
