I was an orangaholic during my pregnancy. And the oranges were just
perfect that season.... Anyway, I was afraid of getting too much sugar
when i drank orange juice... but I had to have it, so I started adding
more water to it. It didn't taste that much different to have half
juice and half water... especially with a splash of pineapple.
