Juice enough oranges to yield 2 cups of fresh juice.

If you haven't made simple syrup yet, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then let it cool.

In a pitcher, combine the fresh orange juice, simple syrup, and lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to mix without losing the soda's fizz.

Give your mixture a taste. If you prefer it sweeter, add more simple syrup.

Refrigerate the pitcher for about 30 minutes.

Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the orange crush mixture over the top.

You can garnish with a slice of orange or a sprig of mint for presentation.

Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste of your Easy Orange Crush.
