Spiffing Orange Facts and Tips!

Crabbie’s Spiced Orange is perfect if you enjoy a delicious citrus zing with your Crabbie’s! In honour of this wonderful orangey tipple we have compiled a list of interesting orange facts and tips:
·         Orange punishment
In Spanish, anaranjear means, literally, to “orangicate” – to pelt something with oranges.
·         Green Oranges
When is an orange green? When it's a Valencia! 
Sometimes warm weather causes the skin to regreen, or reabsorb chlorophyll, giving it a greenish colour. But it will still taste great.
·         Bitter Oranges
Some oranges taste sweet and some are bitter. The sweet variety are delicious to eat but the bitter variety are best used cooked such as in marmalade
·         Orange varieties
There are many varieties of oranges to choose from including navel, red navel, Valencia, Hamlin, pineapple, temple, Moro and amber sweet. Valencia and navel are the two most common varieties. Navel oranges are the most popular “eating” orange in the world because they are seedless, easy to peel, juicy, and sweet.
