Notes

Use fresh orange juice for the best flavor. If using store-bought juice, select a brand without preservatives. Consider soaking the ladyfingers in a mixture of reserved orange juice and sugar for added moisture and sweetness. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; the flavors improve overnight. For a dairy-free version, substitute whipping cream with coconut cream. Experiment with different citrus fruits, like lemon or lime, for a refreshing twist.
