First experiments
The history of the drink goes back to exotic Brazil. In the 1930s, local residents made a bold experiment and combined both ingredients. Other countries have taken up this creation, adding the flavor of their culture to the recipe. Over time, many varieties have appeared. Here are some names for this unusual coffee: Bumble, American Orange and Frutocino.
Coffee Bumble
The name comes from the English language from a combination of two words meaning bumblebee. The drink consists of several balls of different liquids. First, orange juice is poured into the cup, then coffee. In a transparent glass, the color of the drink really resembles a bright insect.
If you combine the ingredients in a shaker or stir with a spoon, you get American orange.
Bumble contains 4 components: coffee, orange juice, caramel syrup and ice cubes.
Effect on the body
Coffee allows you to restore strength and stay in good shape for a long time. The positive effect especially extends to the brain and concentration. Orange makes the drink more healthy and unique. Thus, the vitamins and microelements of the fruit have a good effect on the heart and contribute to the smooth functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.
The orange fruit is rich in theine, which has a similar effect to caffeine. Therefore, coffee with orange tones up even more than plain coffee without additives.
Vitamin C contained in orange neutralizes the negative effects of caffeine. In addition, its juice contains vitamins A, B and E.
There is also a negative impact. Caffeine is addictive, it's no secret. Orange will not help in this regard. In addition, if you drink more than 2-3 cups per day, all the positive effects will be lost. An overdose of coffee causes severe headaches, dizziness, and nausea.
The drink is contraindicated for pregnant women, people with diabetes, high blood sugar levels, and hypertensive patients. It is dangerous to drink coffee for patients with ulcers, gastritis and other gastrointestinal problems.

Tips for choosing an orange
To make coffee with orange of high quality, you need to take the choice of ingredients seriously. A lot is said about coffee, but the wrong orange can also affect the entire composition of the drink.
There are different types of mistakes. For example, if you choose a green fruit, the fruit will not have enough juice and will not be sweet. A ripened orange has more essential oils and sucrose. The juice from such a fruit will be suitable for a drink.
Even an overripe orange will do, especially if you want to use its juice. It will have more vitamins and fluid.
Bright orange color is a good sign. Surely the bright, large and soft fruit will be sweeter, but this taste will not suit those who like sourness.
