If you’re looking for a fresh and unexpected way to start your Thursday morning, look no further than Capitol Hill. In celebration of National Orange Juice Day, Florida House and Natalie’s Juice Company are teaming up to bring a splash of sunshine to Washington, D.C.—one citrusy sip at a time.

On Thursday, May 1, starting at 8 am, swing by #1 Second Street NE (just steps from the Capitol) to grab a free sample of Natalie’s award-winning, small-batch orange juice, squeezed from Florida’s finest citrus. Known for its clean ingredients and just-squeezed freshness, Natalie’s is a fourth-generation juice company with roots deep in Florida’s groves—and plenty of love for the nation’s capital.

Hosted by Florida House, the official "embassy" for the Sunshine State in Washington, DC, this event is part celebration, part community gathering, and all about raising a glass to Florida’s sweetest export. Expect lots of OJ, friendly faces, and a cheerful dose of citrusy spirit.
