Oranges are a not just a crop, but THE crop for thousands of growers in California, Arizona and Texas. But nowhere is the orange industry so critical as in Florida, which produces virtually all the juice oranges in the U.S. Brant Schirard, who grows for the Florida Natural juice brand, demonstrates the intricacies of creating the perfect juice orange.  Along the way, we discover what may be one of the largest “glasses” of orange juice ever devised!
