Seriously, if you love fresh OJ buying bags of oranges is pretty cheap, and you can get a citrus juicer (like this ) for a reasonable amount.
Ta da! Fresh orange juice without the crazy price tag. Once you start though it does explain why it's so expensive. A single glass of fresh juice takes several oranges.
If you don't mind doing the work, a citrus juicer can be purchased pretty cheaply.
This Citrus Juicer, you should never go through a hot summer without a way to make your own lemonade.
This is my experience as well; also a home mixologist.
I buy maybe 30 lemons (or limes) at a time, and I juice them with a Black + Decker electric juicer, an older version of this one. I then strain the pulp out, ultimately though a metal coffee filter. Then I freeze the clear juice in 8 ounce plastic freezer jars.
When I thaw the juice, I just let it sit at room temp or in the fridge, undisturbed. There will then be the opportunity to decant the juice away from a bit more pulp. I keep each juice in the fridge in its own Oxo salad dressing container
My last batch of each, I began an experiment of adding about a 1/2 teaspoon of vodka to the juices to see if that extends the life. I do this with homemade grenadine (also refrigerated) and I’ve had no issues with long term cold storage.
I have this https://www.amazon.com/BLACK-DECKER-Citrus-Juicer-CJ625/dp/B001EU9VSM/ref=sr_1_7?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1511926819&sr=1-7&keywords=citrus+juicer . It’s cheap and it’s great for home use. It works for everything from lime to grapefruit. I find lime juice is okay for a couple days in the fridge, and adding a bit of fresh squeezed to two day old will perk it up a bit.
Why not get a juicer? Something like this. You just slice the orange in half and it's juiced 10 seconds later.

TESTING NOTES
**
WINNER - Electric
Rated as HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
Black & Decker Citrus Juicer - $19.99
> With no effort, lemons were completely squeezed of all their juice. As you pressed gently, the reamer rotated in both directions to clean out the fruit half, and an adjustable pulp screen kept out seeds and let you adjust the pulp level of the juice with a simple switch. Great for bigger jobs when you want a lot of juice, but easy enough to use for just one lemon. Simple to assemble and clean.

WINNER - Manual
Rated as RECOMMENDED:
AMCO Houseworks Enameled Lemon Squeezer, model 06-0354 - $11.95
> Surprisingly easy to use—juice gushes out. Of the squeeze-style juice presses we tested, this was the most comfortable and effective, with curved handles and a well-shaped plunger. Squeezing the rounded handles didn’t hurt our hands like others of this style, and seeds were contained. It was also attractive, sporting a bright yellow finish, but hand-washing is best if you want to keep the paint from chipping. (We tested the paint and found it lead-free.)

Also rated as RECOMMENDED:
> Nice and easy, this juicer removed all trace of juice in each lemon half with its sharp-edged, open-sided reamer. Seeds stayed out of the juice in the collection cup, which was easy to pour. Sturdily constructed. Has many parts, including a larger reamer that’s inverted beneath the lemon reamer and hangs into the collection cup, making it harder to clean than other manual juicers.

NOT RECOMMENDED:
nah just get a small hand juicer for lemon and limes, like this electric citrus juicer. Then, use your fancy pulverizing juicer for Ginger for the best ginger syrup/moscow mules ever.
