<b>Pear</b>: A pear adds a natural sweetness and smooth texture to balance the tanginess of the oranges.

<b>Tablespoons of White Sugar</b> (Optional): You can adjust the sweetness based on your preference. If you like it sweeter, add a little sugar.

<b>Cold Water</b> (Optional): If you prefer a thinner consistency, a little cold water will help.

<b>Step 1: Clean and Dry the Fruits</b>

Wash the fruits under cold running water to remove any dirt. Dry them with a clean towel to ensure no excess water mixes into the juice.

<b>Step 2: Peel the Oranges and Pear</b>

Peel the oranges, cutting off the ends and removing the skin and white pith. Peel the pear, cut it into small chunks, and remove the seeds.

<b>Step 3: Cut the Fruits into Pieces</b>

Cut the oranges into smaller chunks or segments. Cut the pear into small cubes, similar in size to the orange pieces.

<b>Step 4: Blend the Fruits</b>

Place the orange and pear chunks into a blender. Blend on medium speed until smooth. If you want a thinner juice, add a little cold water and blend again.

<b>Step 5: Strain the Juice (Optional)</b>

If you prefer smooth juice, pour the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any pulp. If you like pulp, skip this step and enjoy the juice with texture.

<b>Step 6: Add Sugar (Optional)</b>

Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar to sweeten the juice, if desired. Stir until dissolved.

<b>Step 7: Serve and Enjoy</b>

Pour the juice into a glass and serve it chilled. You can also place it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before serving to make it extra cold. Add a slice of orange or a mint leaf for a fun, refreshing touch.

<h3>Tips for the Best Juice</h3>

<b>Add Lemon</b>: A squeeze of lemon can enhance the flavor and add extra vitamin C.

<b>Use Ice Cubes</b>: For an even colder drink, add ice cubes when serving.

<b>Try Other Fruits</b>: Feel free to mix in other fruits like apples or strawberries to customize the taste.
