At 100 ml, the orange juice is most of the drink, so squeeze it fresh; bottled juice tastes flat next to the Strega.

What is Liquore Strega?

Liquore Strega is an Italian herbal liqueur made from over 70 botanicals, including saffron, which gives it a bright yellow color and a honeyed, spiced flavor. Strega means "witch" in Italian, which is where the Orange Witch gets its name; the liqueur also gives the drink its herbal flavor.
