Mandarin orange juice

Tangerine juice is the pressed liquid extracted from tangerines, a sweet and aromatic citrus fruit known for its refreshing and slightly acidic flavor. This juice is highly valued in cooking for adding a natural touch of sweetness and acidity to a wide variety of recipes, from desserts and beverages to sauces and dressings.

Origin: The tangerine is native to Southeast Asia, specifically China and Japan, and its cultivation has spread widely to subtropical regions around the world. In Latin American cuisine, tangerine juice is common in countries where the fruit is cultivated, such as Mexico, Argentina, and Chile.

Properties: Tangerine juice is an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which help strengthen the immune system and contribute to skin health. Furthermore, it is low in calories and contains flavonoids that have anti-inflammatory and digestive properties.

Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: depending on the region, the tangerine may also be called mandarina or clementina in some countries, so the juice may be known as jugo de mandarina or jugo de clementina. In areas where the word tangerina is used, it may also be found as jugo de tangerina.
