Question for Mom

Valencia Orange
I like to make freshly squeezed orange juice, but I have discovered that some oranges have more juice than others.  Which kind of orange has the most juice? —Becky M.

For a long time I thought oranges were simply oranges, but I’ve learned that they’re not all the same. Valencia oranges, which are generally available from March to November, are much juicier than navel oranges.  I have gotten as much as 1 cup of juice from a Valencia orange.

Naval oranges (which have what looks like a bellybutton on one end) are good to eat because when peeled they can be easily divided into sections. However, they don’t provide much juice.
