The Orange Blossom Brawlers

Welcome to The Orange Blossom Brawlers, where we celebrate Orlando's citrus heritage while simultaneously fighting off the stinging realization that more of us prefer our oranges juiced rather than fresh. Join us in this riveting exploration of the local fruit, its history, and the dubious honor of citrus-related legends (pickled oranges, anyone?). We're here to embrace our tangled relationship with the sunny state fruit and to poke fun at the eccentricities of Florida's agricultural legacy. Expect spirited debates on whether Florida's oranges are overrated, alongside tastings of overpriced local juice and preserves from our questionable farmers' market. From orange wars of yesteryear to the delightful aroma of stale orange blossoms wafting through the air, we revel in the sweetness of our roots while armed with a hefty dose of delicious cynicism. Who knew oranges could be so contentious? Citrus lovers and skeptics alike are welcome — just don’t get too fruity on us!
