Whilst eating oranges or juicing them is wonderful and best suited for cooking with sweet orange, the majority of citrus farmers need to use pesticides to avoid fruit flies and other pesky insects making the peels potentially unsafe even after washing (unless growing your own of course).

Organic dried peel is recommended for herbal teas and tonics. (Our peel is organic and safe for teas)
