Fresh pressed Pineapple Orange juice will be your new breakfast drink favorite! Filled with tropical flavor from the pineapple, it’s a fun twist on the original orange juice.
Juicing fresh oranges and pineapple together makes for a refreshing and delicious juice that’s also nutritious! We love serving a glass of pineapple orange juice or Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice with breakfast.
You could also go in a different direction by using our Apple Carrot Juice during the fall which is delicious with fresh juiced apples. Not a fan of carrots? Do all apples by making a farm style Apple Cider!
Pineapple Orange Juice ingredients
- Pineapple: Choose a ripe pineapple with a vibrant golden color for the best sweetness. You can juice the core as well, which adds extra nutrition. If it’s too green, it won’t be ripe or sweet.
- Oranges: We recommend using a seedless varieties such as navel or cara cara oranges for convenience and sweetness. Wash thoroughly and remove any seeds if you’re using other types of oranges.
How to Make Pineapple Orange Juice
Wash the pineapple, then carefully remove the skin. Cut the pineapple into chunks that will fit into your juice, including the core if desired.
Wash the oranges thoroughly. Peel the oranges. If using a variety with seeds, remove them before juicing.
Using a cold press (masticating) juicer, juice the pineapple chunks and oranges one after the other. Alternate between adding pineapple and orange to balance the flavors.
Once everything is juiced, stir the juice to mix the flavors, and enjoy immediately or refrigerate for later.
Recipe tips and notes:
- For a smoother juice, strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve before serving to remove any pulp.
- Always use juicy and flavorful oranges, it will taste just like the oranges. If they don’t taste good neither will the orange juice.
- You can also add a small piece of fresh ginger or a few mint leaves for an extra flavor twist.
- Save the orange peels to make a simmer pot or potpourri.
How to store fresh juice:
We recommend enjoying fresh processed juice as soon as possible if you’re using a centrifugal juicer. If you’re using a masticating juicer (slow juicer) you can enjoy it when refrigerated for up to 3 days (72 hours).
You can also freeze the juice for 4-6 months. Be sure to leave about 2 inches of space in the jar to allow for expansion.
Can I freeze this recipe into popsicles?
It gets a bit crystalized when freezing due to the little to no fat content, so we don’t recommend making it into popsicles. You can use a higher fat content ingredient or add simple syrup to help avoid the crystallization.’

Why does my juice taste watery?
Like with any recipe that has produce, you need to start with something that has flavor. If the oranges taste watery, the juice will. If the oranges taste sour or overripe, the juice will taste the same.
We also find that juice will taste stronger the next day once refrigerated and the flavors are able to meld.
Can I add sugar?
We prefer to keep sugar out of the recipe, but if you feel that yours is too tart we suggest adding a sweeter item like apples or carrots. Check out our Apple Carrot Juice recipe as well!
