Notes
One important thing – the juice has to be fresh squeezed – this isn’t a real question most of the time, since blood orange juice is pretty hard to come by in all but the most upscale of food retail places. And you’ll probably want to check out the gorgeous pulp for yourself – it’s a little bit of a thrill when you cut into a blood orange and see the brilliant deep reddish orange-pink inside.
