Awakenings: Shout-outs for the Orange Blossom

Awakenings: Shout-outs for the Orange Blossom | Human Interest | Scoop.it

"What is the first image that comes to mind when you hear someone mention orange blossom? There are actually two main “orange blossoms.” One is the most often thing that comes to mind – the flowers of the orange tree. The second one, and less well known or obvious, is a mixed drink. Of course, it doesn't stop with just two. If you live in Florida, you are very familiar with the Orange Blossom being Florida's state flower. There is also the light, golden aromatic orange blossom honey and then, there is Johnny Cash! Whatever the image, get ready to celebrate... #NationalOrangeBlossomDay!

June 27 is...
National Orange Blossom Day"

When you think of Florida, more than likely images of walking sandy beaches, basking in the sun, swimming with the dolphins, sailing off into the sunset come instantly to mind. The tropical climate and scenery of the "Sunshine State" have long attracted an enormous amount of visitors to its southern shores. It was on this day in history 1513 when one special visitor set foot onto Florida's shore: The culture of North America changed forever.

This Day in History: April 2, 1513

Who actually discovered Florida and who is credited with the discovery of Florida may not be the same person(s).
