Partying in Texas with Navel Orange Selections

No matter what kind of party you may be having adding some naval orange slices, peel or juice will spruce it up and turn it into a healthy concoction. There are so many ways you can turn a naval orange into a party selection: drinks, fruit salads, appetizers and much more. The selections are limited only by your imagination as a hostess. Even recipes you use every day will taste different if you add some navel orange peel or juice. There are very few people who do not enjoy the taste of fresh oranges, so your dishes will have immense success.

One of the most popular party treats is the Jell-O mold. Many people prefer to buy the mold at a party or other store rather than spend the time to make it. You are at the mercy of someone else when you do that since you will not have a say in the type of fruit that is used to create the mold. Making your own Jell-O mold for your party means you can add navel orange sections or peel in order to give your mold just the flavor you want to achieve.

Drinks are an important part of any party. Whether you are serving alcoholic drinks or not, you can certainly use naval orange juice in their creation. In fact, you might even think about making Smoothies or slushees with navel orange sections. You can control the ingredients that go into your party selections when you make them yourself, something that is important if you know some of your guests are unable to eat certain things. While this doesn't mean you will focus your party selections around a few guests, you can certainly take the time to offer selections that everyone can enjoy.

If you're serving Screwdrivers for your party, why not use navel orange juice instead of buying a commercial juice? You will have a healthy foundation for the mix–the alcohol will add enough calories to the drink without the extra sugar content of commercial juices. Besides, you will have better control over all the ingredients by taking it upon yourself to create the drinks instead of buying them commercially. It may be more work, but your guests will appreciate your efforts. After all, a party is not something you hold every day, so taking extra time once or twice a month doesn't take much effort.
