Navel Oranges Add Tang to Hot Weather Drinks

When you’re sick of traditional spring time drinks use navel oranges to add new spark to spring time drinks. Spring and summertime beverages like lemonade and iced tea are great but after long weeks of drinking them every day they can get a little monotonous. With a box of navel oranges and some creativity you can liven up the healthy drinks that you need in the spring months to stay hydrated and refreshed. Navel orange juice is tangy and delicious, and it’s packed with minerals that will help restore the electrolyte balance in your body. When you sweat a lot, like you do in the spring and summer heat, your body’s electrolytes become unbalanced which can lead to dizziness, shortness of breath, and poor balance.

Sweet and naturally healthy orange juice is the natural way to fight dehydration. And since the sugars in navel orange juice are all natural they are easy for your body to break down and use for fuel. Processed sugars are difficult for the body to process and often end up getting stored in the body as fat. So using navel orange juice to sweeten summertime classics like iced tea is the ideal way to get great flavor in a healthy way.

You can add navel oranges to almost any drink to improve the flavor. Simply putting some fresh orange juice in a glass of sparkling water will create a refreshing drink with a kick of citrus tang. Citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruits can help the body absorb and process water faster, so you will get hydrated more quickly when you add citrus juice to a drink, or use sliced citrus fruit as a garnish. When you want to turn a normal get together into a party simply squeeze from fresh orange juice into the drinks and add some candied citrus peel or fresh orange segments to the glass as a garnish and you’ll instantly increase the festivity of the get together. Pretty and healthy navel oranges can turn any gathering into a party.

Navel oranges and other citrus fruits will keep for a long time if you store them in a cool and dry place so buy a box of navel oranges today and get ready for the warm weather. They are also great snacks that have less than 100 calories, which is great when you want to lose weight or maintain your current weight.
